Poacher caught in Madagascar with grilled lemurs Police in Madagascar have arrested a poacher accused of killing and grilling 32 lemurs, a small primate whose meat is increasingly prized as a delicacy, a local conservation group said Monday. The poacher was arrested on Friday in the north-eastern city of Vohemar near the Loky-Manambato wildlife preserve, Fanamby, a non-governmental organisation that monitors the preserve, said in a statement. "The man was arrested as he ... was to enter Vohemar. In this area, lemur can be eaten in small restaurants, even if of course it is not officially on the menu," said Fanamby's secretary general, Serge Rajaobelina. "The man has admitted to having two accomplices, who the police are actively searching for," he added. The hunting of lemurs, a species native to Madagascar of which many varieties are threatened with extinction, is illegal in the country and punishable by two to five years in prison. Fanamby said that despite efforts to raise awareness against poachers in local communities, "demand among consumers for delicacies based on meat from poached animals is on the rise". - AFP Cheers, ~ Alan Life Member NRA Life Member SCI email: editorusa(@)africanxmag(dot)com African Expedition Magazine: http://www.africanxmag.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alan.p.bunn Twitter: http://twitter.com/EditorUSA Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure.

I much prefer my lemur fried.  We seldom get to choose But I've seen them go both ways And I would rather go out in a blaze of glory Than to slowly rot away! | |||

Yuuummmmmm, lemurs!  On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died. If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch... Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son! - Rudyard Kipling Life grows grim without senseless indulgence. | |||

Any recipe that works with vervet or colobus will work with lemur. Frankly, while the guy deserved to be jailed for killing the lemurs, he should have been shot for grilling them. They're only at their best when stewed. Barbarian. | |||
