Thank you. I thought I was the only one thinking of that.

As for the obligatory kill and eat, hmm, since it's Asian I'd say seasoned with five spice powder, wrapped in banana leaves and steamed. Served with rice noodles and hot pepper oil on the side.

Remember this thing is big enough and powerful enough to take off a toe, or maybe a foot, yet flat enough to fit under the couch. IOtD eats Dweller.

Hmmm, sounds good.

I might try a turtle curry (the recipe uses chicken, but states: "Note : This dish originally used turtle meat").

Yep, and there's even a line on a supplier. Which is good, because you never know if the SPCA is going to be closed.

Aw. The recipe is Indonesian. One of my favorite places.
