I noticed that page has recipes for 'dillos. I thought they carried leprosy? Is an armadillo safe to eat?

 

[GRB]

I guess that is a fair question about table fare but, I will admit I am not sure how to answer it. You see, chickens and egg products are known to carry salmonella, most if not all land dwelling mammals can carry and transmit rabies (including deer), Elk are known to carry a wasting disease similar to mad cow disease, rabbits are known to transmit a liver disease (the name escapes me right now), many animals can carry and transmit parasites to man such as trichinosis from swine (pigs, hogs, i.e.: PORK). Some birds are know to carry avian flu which is a killer. Is the chance that an armadillo may carry leprosy any more of a potential threat than is any of the above. My guess would be that one of the best places to start checking would be Fish & Game departments in states where Armadillos are legal game animals.

All the best,
Glenn B

I believe leprosey has been only found in La. Armadillo properly prepared is OK, not great. Iv'e only eaten it in Fl and Panama. Leprosey facts are disputed. [email protected]

Nice site! I refuse to make a joke about eating beaver.

 

[GRB]

You mean like: Save a tree, eat a beaver. Or from another perspective: save a tree, eat a woodpecker.
