still tons of juice and I rested it for 5min as well

I feel like I need to try a pukeko to see if its even near as rubbery

the animal was a youngish male that was still a rising animal, small tail as well as not quite but nearly full size
what I "thought" would be a good eater

even if It was half as chewey as that one was It would still be far to chewey to be enjoyed by humans

it did get me thinking tho, they come from india and Iv never seen an indian person eating, cooking or hunting them
maybe this is the bird for looking at and I should be eating the turks instead
