Bush Meat Eaters: Do You Know The Kind Of Animal Behind The Bush Meat You Eat? by eddyland: 9:31am On Jul 27, 2014
Bush meat today has no doubt become one of Nigerians most relished delicacy in the meat categories of our meals.

I could remember my first visit to a restaurant in Benin, the first in the list of the kinds of meat they presented was bush meat. Though I opted for goat meat cos it was my favourite.

Now, a lot of people eat bush meat, but the question here is, what realy is bush meat and which animal is mostly behind bush meat?

The real mystry behind bush meat can even be seen mostly on bush meat sellers. Try to ask a bush meat seller the kind of animal behind bush meat that he/she sells, I bet you that most of them will present false information on that. Their easiest escape rout answer is that it is an antelope meat, but you and I know quite alright that it is not always antelopes.

The funy thing is that even if it is human parts they are selling to you under the guise of bush meat, some of you will still relish it without knowing.

I have witnessed a bush meat seller being arrested for selling vulture as bush meat to their unsuspecting buyers.

But I was surprise on the arrest cos I think say for many people, bush meat na bush meat, then why is that one different and even leading to arrest.

Monkey, eagle, owl, lion, impaler, grass cutter, squirell, lizard, bush cat, vulture, kangeroo, antelope etc, all nobi bush meat?

Oya bush meat eaters, share your bush meat eating experiences.

Do you have any idea the kind of animal meat you eat under the guise of bush meat?

Plus bush meat is a carrier of the deadly ebola virus. I think we should run from these kind of meat now.

Very nice observation. I don't eat bush meat simply because I don't know whatever they killed and are now calling Bush meat. A wild pusssy cat might be the Bush meat for all you know.

As Gboliwe noted, bush meat is the number one source of the deadly incurable Ebola virus now. People should be more careful about eating anything they dont even know what it is.

Hopefully we won't buy death with our own money o. Amen.

I went to the meat shop yesterday and I came out without buying anything. Immediately I saw the well packaged meat, (beaf, goat, chicken, even pork) my mind went straight to Ebola virus and the meat immediately looked terrifying. I ran!

Ebola is very real and I hate to think what will happen if it is let loose in this our country.

Very true. Packaged meat these days might not be spared. Knowing the source of the packaged meat could help overcome your fears.

Better to be a fish lover at this critical moment or go for the traditional chicken from the local farms.

Safety should be a watch word for all meat lovers now.

Pray tell.... how do you differentiate between Tiger meat and an Antelope's meat since it seems "you've eaten all the bush meat" that exist.

From a conservationist perspective, I think the sale of bush meat should be outlawed. Most of this animals are endangered and more and more are becoming rare not to talk of the extinct species. By the time we create an imbalance in the ecosystem we should be ready for a corresponding imbalance the ecosystem will have in us. The case of Ebola virus!
