If you want to eat something that tastes like chicken, might I suggest... chicken?

A REAL-life river monster that has survived since the age of the dinosaurs is being hurriedly eaten towards extinction. The Chinese giant salamander has become the must have delicacy among Far East luxury diners who prize its lean but chewy flesh said to taste like chicken...
“The overexploitation of these incredible animals for human consumption has had a catastrophic effect on their numbers in the wild over an amazingly short time-span.

Or maybe the actress's husband, who was bitten on the foot by one?

Google remembered.
Jeremy Wade fished for these in Japan.
Is there anything these people won’t eat or use to stiffen a soft pecker?
Just over cook your chicken and you have the same thing.

I see potential in the export of alligator. I wonder if the Chinese would be interested in Burmese python meat?
“......its lean but chewy flesh and tastes like chicken”.....
There are only a few things that don’t.
There is no animal so endangered that the Chinese will not kill it for food or an aphrodisiac.
“A fossil is dead.”......
You DO have a point!
The Chinese have a long history of nomadic tribes who would populate an area and eat literally everything in that area they occupied until they were forced to migrate to another area where they repeated the same scenario. The Chinese will eat anything it seems.
My filet mignon was great; tasted like chicken.
This salamander has survived 170 million years. It has probably seen a few populations and thousands of generations of humans come and go. YET WE ARE THE ONES WHO WILL SEND IT TO EXTINCTION.
Get real man. I am sure some type of tax or fine is sure to follow.
East Asians — and the Chinese in particular — will eat anything they can subdue long enough to cram in their mouths. Many of the large animals on the Endangered Species list are there because of the greed and sexual insecurities of the Chinese.

Sadly it is in this way we humans prove ourselves to be little more than a parasitic virus destroying life around us as we grow in population. The Asian people aren’t bad people but some of their customs and culture is terrible. Killing dogs for their meat, sharks for just the fin, tons of sea life, and this big salamander from prehistoric times are just the tip of the iceberg.
One day nature will fight back and wipe out most the population. Seeing what we as a species are doing; I’m not so sure that’s a bad thing. Maybe “Thanos”, the bad guy in the recent MCU Infinity movie, was on to something. At least his way was quick and painless. Nature won’t be so kind.
For such a small percentage of the life on earth; we do the most damage. I don’t buy into global warming but anyone can see the damage we humans are doing by over populating and not having respect for other species. I’m not talking about anyone here on FR per se; but humans, especially Asians for some reason, in general.
How can a fossil be living? Where do they find these “writers”??
