Only cats and owls are not commonly eaten in Nigeria, and that's because the average Nigerian thinks they are "possessed" . grin

Every other animal is eaten in Nigeria.

The only thing on this list that I can eat with a clear conscience is rabbit.

People who eat cats are just......
People who eat horses are a bunch of......
People who eat rats are fvcking.....
horse and donkey are on daily menu in some part south east Nigeria. In fact, they slaughter them as we regularly slaughter cows. Beef is prepared on special occasions like funerals. I nearly vomit the first time I was served with horse meat. Sweet but generally stronger than beef chewing them. One man food is another man poison sha.

Your answer is almost definitely “no.” Now, would you eat another animal of the same species as your pet? This time, your answer might be “no.” However, ask the citizens of some countries these same questions and you will probably hear “yes,” especially to the second question.
Although some of us have become so accustomed to some animals as pets that we no longer consider them as food, other people have no qualms about eating these animals, even if they have a similar animal as a pet. Here are some countries whose citizens will eat your favorite pet without a second thought.

Dogs
Dogs may be man’s best friends but not to some citizens of Switzerland, Vietnam, Nigeria, South Korea, Indonesia, Greenland, the Philippines, and China, who consider the animals as just livestock.

In Switzerland, it is illegal to buy and sell dog meat. But there is no law against people killing and eating their own dogs . Several tribes living around the Arctic and Antarctic will also readily munch down on their dogs when food is low. In Vietnam, dog meat is the go-to meat during ceremonies. Demand is so high that dogs are now being stolen from the streets and homes of neighboring Thailand and smuggled into Vietnam.

If there is one place not to be a dog, it is South Korea. In that country, up to 2.5 million dogs are slaughtered and eaten every year. Following South Korea is the Philippines, where over 290,000 dogs are killed for human consumption annually.

Dog meat used to be legal in the Philippines until the 1998 Animal Welfare Act banned it. However, the dog meat industry simply moved underground and business continued as usual. These days, it is worth over $4 million a year.
The Lychee and Dog Meat Festival (aka the Yulin Dog Meat Festival) marks the height of consumption in China. Over 10,000 dogs and cats are eaten during the 10-day annual festival held in Guangxi province.

Monkeys
Monkey meat is called “bushmeat” in the parts of West and Central Africa where it is eaten. In the Republic of the Congo, it is called likaku and is usually sold in restaurants and at roadside stands.

So many monkeys are being hunted to sate the appetites of monkey meat lovers that some species are already at the brink of extinction. It was believed that one subspecies, the Miss Waldron’s red colobus, had been hunted to extinction, but there may be a few still living in Africa. This subspecies is now considered to be “critically endangered.”

Gorillas, bonobos, and chimpanzees are not safe from monkey meat hunters and consumers, either, as these animals are considered alternatives to monkeys.
There are claims that fresh monkey brains are a delicacy in China and Malaysia. It is said that the head of the unfortunate monkey is split open and the brain is eaten straight from the skull. These claims have not been confirmed, but it could have happened in the past—and possibly still occurs today.

However, we know that cooked monkey brains are eaten in countries in the Far East.
