House is actually quite nice!

Its tastes a little like beef, but has the texture of chicken.

Yes, I've tried horse...

I've also had:

Squirrel
Phasent
Kangaroo
Deer
Rabbit
Hare
Pigeon

Few others, but can't think what right now...


Try aligator, it's yummy!


I didn't like it. Or turtle. Mind you, the only meat I normally gobble is still alive & attached to my man.

Could be Hippo? That's latin for horse...

Although Kangaroo is aboriginal for horse too, in some ways.

I guess that's kinda similar to Polar bears, as their fur is transparent.


No it isn't, if you see a polar bear in a grey environment it's still white.


Gits right, their fur is see through, it appears white due to the light :wub: Dont they have black skin too?

During the war, there wasn't much of anything. They ate horse to survive.
In France they still do

Z


There must be a *rubbish* load of horses in france left from quite a few years ago then...... :)

Whats that elephant-like-leg in the kebab shop on the skewer that you see in the window? Scraps or missing horse parts from shergar's years?

:cry:

No he's not, sorry... Look at this bear, even in shadow his fur is white, of course it looks white due to light, but that's because it is white, that's how colour works...

but thats same as snow, it doesnt look clear in the shade ether.
its about light refaction, as light enters one way it will change direction or some stuff like that...

You can't say snow is transparent though, because its clearly not. Neither is polar bear fur/hair.

White things appear white because the light is reflected without any frequencies of light being absorbed by whichever material is doing the reflecting. This is true of both snow and polar bear fur/hair.

Look at a clear plastic bag and a piece of paper. One is white (which represents polar bears and snow), the other is transparent. Polar bear skin is dark grey/black, if polar bear fur was truly transparent, they would not appear to be a brilliant white colour.
