In W Africa, all roadkill is immediately fought over by the hungry folk who seldom get to eat meat. Even sick animals that have collapsed and died (even dogs and rats!) are quickly grabbed, despite the fact they may be diseased or half rotten. Fights have broken out over these corpses.

My husband still can't understand why here in UK a dead muntjac, fallow deer, pheasant, badger, fox, wood pigeon etc lying at the side of the road haven't been snapped up for the pot!
