Thread: Overnight meat recovery - thoughts?

Back barely 90 mins later - found it
Had foam coming out its arse and mouth
Actually found it by the stench

Walked away

I must be fussy
But no way would I dress and eat an animal not gutted within a short time

I plucked plenty of dead sheep when a kid - so its not the smell (not to mention Possum skinned belly black/green)
Just cant eat something like that
Prob "mind over matter"

@Sarvo wow that was quick for it to go off! Must have been hot. Our the round went into the guts.
