Looks like some the best seafoods,like shrimp and crabs like to feed on carrion. Maybe we need to try buzzards and possums to see if it also applies with land animals.

I was cleaning snappers last week in the keys and a full grown manatee came up and ate several of the carcasses. I’ve never seen that before, just like I’d have never guessed you’d catch shrimp that way.

They bait shrimp traps in AK. Shrimp eat the dead shrimp in the bait bucket. Little cockroaches - not very diff from crayfish & crabs.
I thought possum was a roadside delicacy.

Possum and Rattlesnake are about the only 2 wildlife foods that I'll never eat again from what I've had. The possum didn't taste that bad but the fat just curdled in my mouth and throat and I couldn't seem to get it out. The Rattlesnake was pretty good too but a couple of buddies were cleaning one and I came up and that was a stinking damn thing. Seems like I can still smell just thinking about it. Ain't gonna try buzzard. lol

If you ever had to take a shit while Yellowtailing, you would never eat Yellowtail again. Just sayin’.

I had to kill and clean but the greasy fat stayed with me thru the whole process. It was baked with taters, carrots, and onions... I ate it but never want to again. It was better than a cormorant .. lol

I've heard the way to clean and prep a possum was to swinge it, scrub it with detergent then bake it with veggies. Never tried it so no opinion.
