Thread: NATIONAL EMBLEMS

Are there any other countries out there where it is legal to hunt and eat your national symbols, or turn them into rugs, jackets, hats ect?
Or are we just lucky in Australia!

One particular rooster is an emblem of our country:



But we eat a lot of chicken here, so it is legal

We liquify them

You're just lucky I guess. Anyway, balk eagle taste terrible. Benjamin Franklin wanted the U.S. to adopt the wild turkey as its symbol, now that would have been good eatin'.
