	I knew even before I clicked that link that this would involve my home state. I don't know how I knew, but I knew. (Reply to this)

	Am I seeing things, or does it have three ears too? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	I think that might be a stick or something on the asphalt. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	...would YOU eat a 7-legged hermaphrodite deer? Nah, I'm a vegetarian. rim shot Gawd that's weird. I remember the news story but I had thought he killed it hunting. I wonder if it reproduced first. And how exactly a deer could end up like that anyway. was not a biology major, obviously (Reply to this)(Thread)

	In people, extra limbs are sometimes the remains of parasitic twins- a second fetus that never fully separated/got reabsorbed at some point. So maybe that's it? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Yeah, judging by the photos, it looked like the deer had a conjoined twin growing out of its hindquarters. As a wise man once said, "Somethin' about that is just downright unsettling." (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Yeah, that's what I was going to say. Probably explains the double gonads as well. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Man, this had to happen three days after I first try venison. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	I heard about this on the news the other day. I tried to be surprised that he ate it, but yeah. I've lived in Wisconsin my entire life. He could have its hindquarters stuffed and mounted on his wall and I would be unsurprised. (Reply to this)

	Showed it to my roomie. She wants to know what is in the water. Poor buck, but that is pretty weird. (Reply to this)

	Of course not! He hit it with his car. Roadkill is so bruised it tastes awful. /farmkid (Reply to this)(Thread)

	polygamouse 2006-12-19 01:52 pm UTC (link)
	Ew, and it went under the truck, too. If he'd been in a car and just broke the legs, maybe, but ew. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	kadath 2006-12-19 03:46 pm UTC (link)
	Srsly. Butchering roadkill is almost never worth the effort. Except moose. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	If I were hungry enough I would. (Reply to this)

	I was expecting this to involve Smallville, somehow. (Reply to this)

	Looks like somebody at the nuke plant has been sleeping on the job. Sure, I'd eat some. "I've eaten 7-legged hermaphrodite roadkill venison!" is a great conversation starter, you know? (Reply to this)(Thread)

"Eat your Soylent Green, kids. You know, when I was a still a young girl, I had to eat 7-legged hermaphrodite roadkill venison. AND I HAD TO LIKE IT!"

"Of course I'll have some of your casserole, honey. I mean, I've eaten 7-legged hermaphrodite roadkill venison before. How bad can this be?"

Also, the ever-popular:

"Have YOU ever eaten 7-legged hermaphrodite roadkill venison?"

	That last needs to be in all caps for proper Ginmar effect. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	kahteh 2006-12-19 04:26 pm UTC (link)
	Yes. I would totally eat a 7-legged-hermaphrodite deer, just so's I could say that I had. ...although I rather fear that it would be a conversation-stopper rather than -starter. (Reply to this)

	Am I the only one who saw this and thought of Stephen King's Dark Tower series ? Aunt Talitha and "threaded stock'' immeditely sprung to mind. (Reply to this)(Thread)
