Sadly roadkill usually doesnt die quickly, which leaves plenty of time for the body to put out all sorts of chemicals like adrenaline and shit which makes the meat taste worse. Im no expert at all but ive heard a few tines from hunters that an instant kill is important for the quality of the meat.
The livestock industry has known since the 1970’s that animals experiencing stress prior to slaughter undergo metabolic reactions. These reactions can reduce the quality and taste of meat. The same principles apply to wild game killed in the field.
That means that big kills in the past by hunters where they wound the animal and follow it until it drops tasted terrible. But I guess bad tasting meat is better than not feeding the tribe at all.
But but but YOU said there’s no difference! Can’t trust ANYone these days… :(

Disclaimer: I don’t have a driver’s license and I’ve never seen roadkill that looked fresh and intact enough that I would’ve even remotely considered eating it. Just amused that people instantly reject the general notion of eating anything killed by a car.

That’s why you gotta shoot deer from a helicopter
yeah the same applies to fish of course as well
you can outright taste when the fish was badly killed. it tastes like shit.

I meant morally speaking but yes, the internet is a big spooky place full of dishonest people o.o
