See I've read that venison is fine but I was assuming that meant farmed deer/elk.
I know a few people won't eat any meat from a wild animal because they think it's "sicker" than farmed animals...different diseases and such.
But tegus would normally eat things from the wild, right? Although I doubt I'd see one taking down a bear.

I currently hunt in Pennsylvania and we're only allowed like...one of everything. But Georgia, where I'm moving this summer, has totally different laws and one person can take 12 deer, something like 12 pheasants a day, up to 3 turkeys, etc. And if we're out that much, which knowing me and my fiance we will be (we like being able to feed ourselves for a few months), may as well find another purpose for all that meat.
