Roadkill is great imo. If you actively want it, go out for a country ride reasonably early in the morning and you'll likely find a clipped pigeon or pheasant that's still warm with barely a mark on it.
I've not eaten badger but the two people I know who have said it's a bit like lamb but with a very gamey, somewhat off-putting smell.

It's good as a ham. You need to be careful though as being in possession of a live one is a crime and the onus is on you to prove it was dead when it entered your possession.

As it's a cycling forum, what are peoples thoughts on roadkill. I mostly mean recently dead pheasants and rabits that are not too squashed. I'm not sure about more exotic eating such as squirrels and badgers but I remember seeing a TV programe where a chap had a freezer full of all kinds of roadkill which he admitted to serving up to guests and only saying what they had just eaten after the meal. His thinking was that it was all free range and a shame for it to go to waste.
