One day a guy gets lost in the forest and after 5 days of complete fasting (he can’t even find berries to eat),
when he is almost dead, he sees a golden eagle.
With his last remaining strength he manages to capture it and eat it.
But just as he is about to finish his meal, some forest rangers pass by and arrest him for killing an endangered species.
In court he defended himself by saying that if he had not killed the eagle he would have died shortly thereafter of hunger.
Incredibly, the judge agrees with him and acquits him.
Once outside the courthouse the judge approaches the man and asks him:
“Excuse me, but I would like to know something before you go back to your home.
I have never tasted a golden eagle and I certainly never will and I would like to know what it tastes like.”
And the man:
“Well, I would say a flavor halfway between the whooping crane and the spotted owl!”.
