We had a rattle snake come up out of the mesa, picked it up and put it back out there... two days later it came back, I put it back out where it belonged... well it came back again... I killed it, cleaned it, skinned it, and then I ate it. Skin is on the desk, the rattle is the drawer, and the meat grilled up nice with a little lemon and garlic. NO it doesn't taste like chicken, it may resemble chicken (if you wish) but it tastes like rattle snake.
Now Cecil, in your case you better be ready to suffer for a long time.
