text: Last I checked, people eat bear, moose, beaver, muskrat, rabbit, and squirrel. All furbearers, all edible. No facts on linx, wolf, coyote, or mink though. can't make a statement on them. I'd be wary of wolf steak, myself. I DO believe I read somewhere about chinchillas being good for soup and stew. So, need to check your reference books again.
