I have never eaten one. I know guys who do it all the time here though. It's a big deal around the quail unlimited hunts every year. When I was a driver the hunters would talk about an expensive banquet they were going to, a "wild game" dinner. The next day they would ask us if it is a normal thing to eat Possums, rattlesnake, dillos, coon, bush tails or woodpecker. I have eaten all but armadillo. Come to find out these expensive banquets were just the plantation farmers family making money off the poor saps.

I have shot many of them. They can be tricky (at least for me, never hunted at all), they hop around and just Sprint for no reason sometime. I use a canned 10/22 to keep my wife off my back. Never had a problem until one crawled up and died under the house. Three days of south Georgia heat let us know he was under there. She found him, bullet hole in his chest, she knew who did it. She now keeps that gun under her bed at night.....

I just got approved for a 5.56 can recently.... The fun continues!
