Sir, I can only imagine that they think the meat has a 'gamey' taste (hormones), don't care for fresh meat, are just small
minded or not understanding about the feral part. While attending a pot luck dinner party years ago in college I watched
people scarfing down on 'chicken strips' that they thought tasted great, until, they learned the chicken strips were actually
rattlesnake. Reactions spanned from, 'Really ?, cause it's actually pretty good' to some getting violently ill. Because the
professor, who brought the dish, had a connection to the ranch where I worked I knew what the meat was & went on
enjoying it. He had collected the snakes during one of our cattle roundups.
I believe alot of times people think too hard & freak themselves out, all while forgetting to enjoy life and those they love.
