    I wouldn't touch it. Cut their guts open and they are seething with worms. People do eat them though.

    the tail makes an oxtail stew to beat all
    the steaks are fine,but bland.... season well and they great
    its a very lean dark meat.
    worms are in the gut bag...dont gut shoot and you wont see them LOL.
    we did try a roast and found it like lean lamb,just darker.
