Ep. 357: Game On, Suckers! MeatEater Trivia XX

just everything podcast. Now, we don't ask Steve Ronnella here today, but we are joined by Janice Patelis, Ryan Callahan, Seth Morris, Chester, Floyd cren Schneider, and Corey Caulkins. If you're not familiar, this is a ten round quiz show with questions born out of meat eaters for verticals which are hunting, fishing, conservation and cooking, and there is a prize. Meat Eater will donate five dollars to the conservation organization of the

winners choosing. I'm gonna give listeners a peek behind the curtain here. We are recording today's episode in early May, but it likely won't publish for a couple of months. Uh, this is a break in case of an emergency show. If we ever hit a stretch where we can't get together to record a new episode, this is what you're

going to hear. Now, you're honest. Why don't you make some predictions about the world, Like two months from now, do you have like an NBA champion, or who's gonna be sloppyest it says swdding or how many turkeys are gonna kill this month? Uh? NBA? You know, I don't even know who's in the playoffs. Buddy, it's like Pete Alonso has hit Uh let's see July almost twenty home runs. Oh man, it's a heck of a pace. Yeah, buddy, he's the man. What else do you want to predict?

Whatever you want, Seth, who's gonna be the sloppiest at your wedding? When we record again after the show, you're gonna have an answer for us. But right now, what's your prediction? Not Clayton Nucom, not uh bhil Taylor. Maybe I could say it. I wasn't invited to. I wasn't gonna say it. I can't remember if I'm invited. Yeah. I think you are um really awkward and you're invited. Now you're invited, and you better get hams. I don't know, it could be. I mean, I think Chester is gonna

go pretty pretty hard. It seems like a safe bet. He's just gonna be so happy. He's just gonna be so happy. I can't be putting the brakes on. I agree with that. I'll put I'll put a fiber in the chap like anyone else. Want to love any more predictions out there before we move on. It's your chance you look greater, look like a fool, Chester and I will have taken uh for place at four tournament. Heck yeah, and that's like what d T teams or something is

dang good? Well done boys for getting fourteens. I'm proud of you. Yeah, you guys want to take a minute to thank your sponsors? Yeah, Humming Bergmancoda, Loomacraft must thanks, Survival Vision. What's that The Buregaries podcast would like to sponsor your that'd be great, that'd be great. Yeah, Okay, talk to the financial people. I'll send him an email. Now we have some housekeeping before we get to trivia.

On a previous episode, where we talked about the five least visited national Parks, Sean Curry wrote in to let me know that we are royally butchering the name of Ile Royal in Michigan. He said, it's common for our crew and others to mess up by combining a French pronunciation with an English pronunciation. Here's what he means. If you want to make it ranch, you call it eel royal. If you want to make it English, you call it

ile royal. The incorrect way, which is often how I do it, is pronouncing it ile royal, because that's making the first word English and the second word French. So we should commit to one or the other as a show and either call it il royal or ile royal. What do you guys think I royal. I think we need to stick with what we're comfortable with, ile royal.

He said that, Uh, the James Bond movie Casino Royale was the bane for rangers at Ile Royal, who then always had to hear it pronounced afterwards as ile royale. As I did pick your fights rangers. I get real particular about pronunciations, and then when I hear someone else like wash the tolls. So there's a mountain range and people call o wa Chita and I mean, it's just like, come on, man. And then when I hear someone do like this, I'm like, come on, this ridiculous royal, come on,

like big bag, big big Well I'm talking. I'm specifically talking about like geographic names and stuff that have a unique pronunciation, like an acorn, like yeah, acorn yep, not New Jersey pale. And with that we are on the Meatiator Trivia play the drop, Phil, Look, I need to know what I stay under wind everything I'm saying, just tend to win everything. Game on Suckers from Game on Shuckers. Actually Chester Chester has the game on Suckers down. Let's

hear it Game on Suckers. Oh, let's hear his voicemail. You got something to say? If you got something to say to my dad, say that at the beat. Question one, the topic is biology. This first great question comes to us via Erica Christiansen. If you have a question you think it's right from Meatia to trivia, you can send it to Trivia. The well it's spelled E R I C A. Does that change anything for you? Clay, I

just no, no, okay, I can't trust any area. According to a ninety one study in the Journal of Mammalogy. What North American mammal has the most color variations? Is it black bear, fox, squirrel, Eastern cotton tale rabbit, or red fox? Again, this is according to a nineteen eighty one study in the Journal of Mammalogy. What North American mammal has the most color variations? Black bear, fox, squirrel, Eastern cotton tale rabbit, or red fox? Easy? Did we

can't talk at all? I can't even give a commentary question. So this is a night one study, so we have to calculate into our answer all the studies that have happened since then, over almost forty years ago. But I found it excited in like sten studies, which I think implies that this is like still the foundation if the only study was nineteen eighty one. They're like, man, this is not that great a question. We don't even need

to keep on. No, it's actually a great question. I'm thrilled about this question Erica color photography at that point, So that help. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have cal saying red fox, chest, you're saying black bear, clay saying black bear, Krin saying cottonale Cordy saying black black bear, Seth saying black bear, and Janice saying black bear. Nobody got it right. The correct answer is fox quirrels. Fox squirrels are commonly found

in gray, silver, brown, cream, red, beigian black. Additional variations can be found with squirrels that have differing colors of dorsal and belly hair. In Florida alone, they're thought to be six distinct colors of fox squirrels. Not easy. I don't trust Erica. What do you think about it? Though, you're like, okay, yeah, they are probably the most diverse mammal in North America. I don't know. I don't mean that much time to think about black bears have a

lot of color. Well, there's there's there's a lot of in betweens two. When you really dig into the bare nerds, you know, there's like there's the blonde and the cinnamon and the red and the chocolate in the in the in the and and the blue one up in Alaska, Glacier bear, Glacier bear. But for sure, if the fox girls alone in Florida beat that, Like if they're counting dorsal and venture old coloration too, then like every bear that's got a little white patch, or yeah, I think

we're gonna accept black bear. It's just a big squirrel. Hey, have you introduced everybody for this episode? Yes, yeah, I said, Now we don't have Steve Ornell once again said who's not in the room, which is just bizarre to me. But we don't need to linger out. We're on the question to the topic is deer? Name one of the five states where you're most likely to hit a deer with your vehicle? Oh? Gee, name one of the five states where you're most likely to hit a deer with

your vehicle. A lot of quick answers in the room. Oh boy, Now you write down more than one and I will not accept it. So with all that scribbling, it better just be one state. He's drawing the shape shape of the outline. I got my answer from the honest is grin. Okay, I'm going based off the experience. Does everybody have an answer? Ye? Go ahead and reveal

your answers. We have Cal saying New Jersey, Chester, You're saying Wisconsin, Clay saying Michigan, Karin saying Wisconsin, Corey saying New Jersey, Seth saying New Jersey, and Jana saying Michigan. I gotta go with the home state. The top five are West Virginia, Montana, South Dakota, Michigan, and Pennsylvania striking out for the Wisconsin. I absolutely knew Pennsylvania was in there, and then just as I absolutely knew New Jersey was there, there is way more deer hit in Wisconsin in Montana.

Tell you what you talked to State Farm about their insurance policy and their claims inscsin That's why the year in the row, West Virginia ranks number one in the likelihood of hitting a deer with your vehicle in there. The odds of it happening were one in thirty seven. The months it is most likely to happen our November, October, and December in that order. But this is the stats from one insurance company, from State Farm who I have found. Is there any correlation to the amount of State Farm

locations there. We're not going to look any deeper than this personal experience with State Farm insurance. I want to trust those as far as as far as I could throw. That introduced wolves into the lower forty eight. And here's the weird part about Clay arguing this is he got it correct. I just saw Janics grant and knew it was Michigan. We are on questions. The topic is cooking. What does the acronym FIFO stand for? Again? This is cooking? What does the acronym FIFO stand for? That's f I

f O? Is anybody it in on this one? I worked at a target, so it's kind of a not really how that's a hint? Ill said he worked at a target, and that is a hint. He's security repeating it night time security. I don't even I can't even come up with a creative, dumb answer. F I f O is what we're looking for. I don't know what I don't. Here's where I'm very surprised. Cal and Janice worked in restaurants. I'm sure others in this were worked

in restaurants as well, and they don't know what fifo means. Nope, Yeah, never once have I used it or heard? Does everybody have an answer? Who's going to come up with one? Clay is still just gibberish. I just oil oil, go ahead and reveal your answers. Cal says, fresh in, uh fresh fresh and fresh out Chester with out an answer. Clay saying fire, ice, fire in oil Korean without an answer, Corey saying first in, first out saying fire food and

Jana saying freshion fried out. What does fifo mean Corey is the winner? First in first out? Wow? I mean this is the same. That's I'm not going to give it to you. But you were right. There was good Corey got it right. Answer. Yes, This simply means that the first items you placed in the fridge or freezer are the first items to come out. It's commonly used in restaurants, but is also a good practice for hunters and anglers to use at home. Or did you Was

that a guest or you do it? Absolute guess'd many restaurants and had never heard that before. You always used the first stuff, last practice, and that stuff looks we should probably use it. Yeah, exactly. I just don't think that everybody, anybody ever acrononized it right. They would just be like your chef would be like first and first out. Dude.

Now here's here's where I recently heard. I was watching the episode of Bar Rescue and John Tafford comes in just lighting up the kitchen staff as he likes to do, and he yells something about don't you guys practice flight foe? So he did, and John Tafford doesn't like the riders of that show. Just made that up. Maybe we almost said that before in real life. We are on the question for the topic is varmints. This next great question comes to us via Clayton McFarland. You can never now, Clay.

Are you a Clayton or Clay Clay? Straight up? Can you trust to Clayton? You know, I've known a lot of good Clayton's, but you know, Okay, yeah, I think so. We'll see based on the questions from Clayton McFarland. If you have a question you think is right for Meat Eat Trivia A, send it to Trivia at the meat eator dot com. What part of a raccoon is often used in the homemade moonshine just stilling process? What part of a raccoon is often used in the homemade moonshine

distilling process? Clay, how you feeling about this? Clay? And I'm ashamed that I don't know this offhand. It seems right up your alley because the the racoon episodes that I'm doing for burglaries that have already happened by now I talk a lot about moonshine, doing some moonshine and son of a gun Again, what part of the raccoon is often used in the moonshine distilling process? Does everybody

have an answer? I changed my first answer. I'm wondering if I should have win with with my gut original. Gonna give you a couple of seconds. Chester, you want to switch it, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have cal saying the vaculum, Chester saying the tail, Clay saying the vaculum, Corince saying the gonads, Corey saying the vaculum, Seth saying the tail, and Janice saying the fat. The correct answer is the vaculum or penis bone? Now what

are they doing with it? The vaculum is placed at the outlet of a moonshine still to help the liquid flow smoothly into a collection vessel. If you want to learn how to get your own fore your own still, go to the media dot com and check out Clay Newcome's video called how to make a Raccoon vaculum toothpick. He shows you how to cut it out of a raccoon, how to clean it, and how to whiten it great video. Now, if I was guy make a moonshine, I'd cut the

tail off that raccoon and clean my pipes with it. There, you gal, That's what I would do, And he'd have vacuum and vacuum. When he said was envisioning using the coon part leaving the tail off, I was like, man, you got some big pipes as a pipe cleaner. So we are onto question five. We'll get a scoreboard update after this. The topic is Frontiersman, Steve, what' know that, dude?

I'm striking out? Daniel Boone National Forest, which used to be called the Cumberland National Forest, is located in what state? You're giving these all the clay? I feel like, yeah, Daniel Boone National Forest used to be called the Cumberland National Forest is located in what state? Clay? Do you feel like this one is given to you? There? It should be. But after this I'll give a little commentary. Does everybody have an answer? No? Please give me three seconds.

Still thinking about that raccoon vacuum. Daniel Boone National Forest, which he used to be called the Cumberland National Forest is located in what state? Changing changing answer last second, that tells you how confident I am, now honest? Can you read anything from his face? No? No, Um, do you know any states? There's a lot of Cumberlands you can go off of. There are Yeah, there's only there's only one Cumberland brother. Well, yeah, I know what you mean.

But there's there's some towns, there's some landmarks. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Cal saying Tennessee, Chester saying Tennessee, Clay saying Virginia, Karen saying Missouri, Corey saying Tennessee, Seth saying Maryland, Jana saying Kentucky. The correct answer is Kentucky. Job you have Kentucky? Okay, yeah, I did. Now let me tell you. Let me tell you why. So when you go to the Cumberland Gap, which is that's like

a three, that's like a tri state. Yeah, so you you passed through the Cumberland Gap on a trail foot and trail, which interestingly used to be a state highway that for years went through the Cumberland Gap because it's the best place to cross the mountains, So there was a state highway there. Then they you know, learned the historical significance of it. In the nineteen nineties that built

a tunnel through the mountain and rewilded the gap. When you're in the gap, you're on a foot trail, and you walk like a hundred yards off the foot trail up to the top of this mountain, and you're at the corner of Kentucky Tennessee in Virginia. So the gap is actually most of it's in Virginia, and so and then there's a lot more National forest in Virginia than in Kentucky. So that's why I went in Virginia. But

I got, I got, I got smoked. The Cumberland game name comes from absolutely, well, we're gonna learn everyone else here in a second. Cumberland National Forest was named after will not asking me, yeah, go ahead, no, no, no, he was He was a chump from England, a jump Cumberland. His last name was Cumberland. And when the guys came over that first explored the gap, they were loyal to the British and we're trying to, you know, just look good with their leaders. And basically this, uh, I forgot

the guy's name that actually named Cumberland. But it was basically a political favor to a guy who never set foot in the Cumberland Gap. The Cumberland National Forest was named after William Augustus, the Duke of Cumberland. He had many nicknames. He had many nicknames, including the Butcher and the Bloody Duke because of how we treated Scottish prisoners

and civil and civilians in war. When locals realized the area was named after someone who slaughtered their ancestors, they asked to get the forest renamed in In In nineteen sixty six, that happened when Lyndon B. Johnson officially changed it to Daniel Boone National Forest. That is funny because yeah, there's a ton of Scotch hi over there, right. Yeah. Well, I mean when a bunch of that country was named that, we were British colonies and they were doing political favorite

to people. I hate naming stuff after chumps, and it happened a lot. Phil give us a scoreboard update. Oh, I guess we're not gonna name this the Clay nucom Old podcast studio. Uh this this game is not going as well as the last one we recorded. Unfortunately, we've got uh seven. Karen and Chester have yet to make it onto the board. Uh. In second place with one point is Ryan Callahan and then tied for first with two points are Clay Corey and Janice Patelis Son of

a Gun. All right, we got a game here, fellas tough. There is room for comeback, so that's anyone can still win at this point. I know your roots for somebody who's tied. I kind of liked at that time when Steve asked all of us, or maybe you asked all of us who we would give the winnings too. If we want, we'll get down to the end and see who's in it. I'm gonna have that discussion. All right, We're onto question six. The topic is deer camp. Now

this is an audio question. A few months ago I played for you guys what I considered to be the worst hunting song ever written? What was it? Honest? You remember? Did scar you enough? No? I got very lucky in answering it correctly, some country dude. It was Luke Brian's drinking beer and wasting bullets. I am now going to play for you one minute of the greatest hunting song ever written, and you need to identify the artist who's Yeah,

I'm looking for the artist. Very confident Jess to Wing shotguns singing down log God bad, grinning around and not try Rey Loan. I wasn't looking ron, I just I just got the frantic arm motion by chance. There. I totally saw it. I'm not going to change my answer. I'll be honorable punt it on mine. This is a good song. Yeah, it is a good song. Who sings this one Street favorite? Okay, So Karn didn't give us a little tip. The greatest hunting song ever written. I'll

give you this hint. It's not Luke Bryan now, so you're the one thet I like the passion of that. Does everybody have an answer? Sure sounds familiar, easy, more country or more western? You think something in between? That was from the Brothers and funny enough. I text my body Stephen Renault. I said, hey, I'm out of ideas. I need a family movie and I can watch. He replies with Princess Pride. My girls had already seen it and they loved it. After we pretty much forced him

to watch it. And uh, the weather Red Fern Grows, which is very hard to find the original on streaming of found please right in if you can help me with that. And then the third one was The Blues. The Blues brothers. So I go to my girls and I'm like, well, check out this Lord of the Rings. They're like, no, not into it, like really, guys are very crazy. And I'm like, all right, I'll just show you the trailer of the Blues Brothers. Let's watch this. I'm like, I'm sure because of the I don't know

what they said. We like to see guys doing stupid stuff, and you know, and next thing I know, my kids are hearing F bombs, m F bombs, seeing new and used prophylactics and holy cow, did I have a lot of questions to answer that evening? But yeahs, yeah, we had to go through all that and uh, anyways, educational, I think Phil needs to be go to person to text for family of course. Yeah, any time, thanks buddy. All right, back to the game a trivia though you're

still not written anyme down. I'm just trying to tell you he was going to get sidetracked and we just move on. Do you have an answer that one? Yeah? I didn't really get that one, right, mail tell us all right, go ahead and reveal your answers. I am gonna pick one out. It's gonna be I'm not looking up.

We have cal saying Ryan Adams, Chester and Clay saying the and Karan and Corey saying the Turnpike Troubadours, Seth saying whiskey Myers and Janice saying Steve Earle little thing about these guys that just got back together, real confident. Let's hear him read the answer. Okay, he correct answers Turnpike Troubadoors, And this song was The bird Hunters. They are from Oklahoma, just like a hour and a half from me, but we just had a serious turn in

the game right there. The turn Bike Troupodoors released that song on their self titled album in It's about a kail hunter who has to give up his bird dog

when he follows a girl to the city. Medium dot Com agrees with me, saying The bird Hunters is a phenomenal song and it deserves the same treatment we give to Faulkner or Hemming Waves oppositions that what happens, Yeah, well, he's not much of a freaking kail hunter if he gives up his dog to follow a girl visit to his best buddy Danny and then he comes back eventually when they don't work out. No, no, no, no, this twelve has had twelve Decembers by then. Yeah, there was

a there was quite a bit. You're not like this guy. You want to talk about chumps. Oh, I'm sure. It's a heartbreaker song ever written. We're on the question. The topic is fishing. Smurf meat is produced by this fish with blue flesh that's only found on North America's West coast. Smurf meat is produced by this fish with blue flesh

that's only found on North America's West coast. A couple of folks that knew it smurf meat, smurf meet a lot of folks that got this Johnnie, Yeah, yeah, I guess that's not a Does somebody have a fruit colored marker? Let's go back to this dog conversation. I'm not how do you guys like that song? Oh, it's great if he regrets regrets, Yeah, yeah, you got you should regret that. I mean, come on, I wish I had the lyrics. It's home bo And next time you do that, get

out your phone. You can text me and Chester and koreating Corey. We'd all really appreciate that you texted me too. Okay, as long as you got that mullet. Does everybody have an about smurf meat? Yeah, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Cal saying link cod, Chester saying link cod, Clay saying doherty the pixar fish, Karim saying puffer fish, Corey saying marlin, Seth saying link cod, and Janice saying cod.

The correct answer is link cod. I don't think we're going to give it to you that they're not even a cod. Did you mean like he wouldn't need link in front of that? We could be pea cod. You're right, could have been Alaskan cod. Black God thought that about link Cod have blue flesh. Some biologists believe it's a product of a shallow water diet. One more recent study say it's an indicator that the fish is experiencing nutritional stress.

Either way, the blue color disappears when the meat is cooked. You can get blue lobsters too, which is weird more rare. Yeah, but I mean a shallow water diet. So what happens to all the other fish with white flesh that live in shallow water. I don't know. Nobody's really certain about it. Talks about how their diet higher in chlorophill if that helps you more like the question eight, we will get a scoreboard update from film answer. Just if you're wondering,

Dory was a blue fish talking about kids movies. For those of you wondering, just keep swimming. Just what kind of fish was a film? A blue tang. We're on the question at the topic is hunting. This next rate question comes. It was via crisp Jasmine. If you have a question you think is right for meat Eater, you can send it to trivia at the meat eater dot com. What state has the highest population of bighorn sheep? What state has the highest population of big horn sheep? Great question.

I'm gonna get the answer right by looking in Corey's eyes because I know he needs it. Corey looked me in the eyes. Okay, I got it. Because y'all think it tough, it's think I got it wrong. It's not Wisconsin. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Cal saying Idaho, Chester saying Montana, Clay saying Montana, Krin saying Colorado, Corey saying Montana, and Jana saying Colorado.

Nobody got it correct. Correct answer is Nevada. Nevada has a population of roughly twelve thousand bighorn sheep, which is made up of Desert big horns, Rocky Mountain big horns, and California big horns. This is nearly twice as many as the next closest states like Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, and Arizona. I don't even apply Nevada think about the most nonresident tags as well, So no, yeah, wow, it crossed my mind. I didn't write it down, though. Phil hit us with

a scoreboard update. I think it says a lot of there are some people with one point, and yet it's still anybody's game. We've got seven Karen with one point, cal Chester and Janice have too, and Corey and Clay are tied for first with three points. This is a great games. A smoker maybe got a little too harder. Question at Home, Feel good about yourself? Question nine. The topic is gear. This type of arrow, which often has extra fletchings that are extra long, is commonly used for

bird hunting because it's designed to travel shorter distances. A few confident answers again, this type of arrow, which often has extra fletchings that are extra long, is commonly used for bird hunting because it's designed to travel shorter distances. Does everybody have an answer that was quick? I wouldn't be a good poker player. Go ahead, and we have flu fu flu flu flu flu. Uh corey saying Judo,

the guy in first place got it wrong. The correct answer is flu flu all I gotta beat his corey now. While a regular arrow shot three compound bow can go hundreds of yards, a flu flu arrow maxes out at about fifty. This makes it a popular choice for archers who want to hunt pheasants ducks in small game because flu flus are easier to recover. Actually drew one with his name there at the beginning of the same that's

a good point. Hey, I shot I pheasant hunted one day in Kansas with flu flues in a traditional bow. How did that go? It was tough, man. I went into it with zero practice shooting flying stuff like I just pretty much booked like an outfitted type hunt or wild birds, went up there and got a bunch of shots.

They were wild birds, but they were they were they were raised totally in the wild, but at these feeders, so they were It was kind of you know, they weren't like I got thirty shots in a day, so that tells you they probably weren't a normal wild bird hunt it. It was highly subp Yeah. Anyway, I actually contacted one bird in like Phoenish shots and it didn't kill it. Another real fun thing to do with them is go to your home depot and get some uh

foam siding. Cut it in circles, like a big round circle. You can toss those circles up. It's fun. Trap get a trap bone. You're you're saying, like the practice version version, practicing with your flu flu arrows. Phil, give us a scoreboard update. Uh, well, we've got Clay in first with four points, but then hot on his his tail, we've got cal Chester, Corey, and Janice all with three points, and we could have like a four person tiebreaker. Here,

I'm cheering for you guys. Wrong. We're gonna ask the uh possible winners where you might give your money to tell us your honest how will dot org and why? Well, because they're kind of new, up and coming, and boy, I feel like they're really hustling their tails off to keep us all educated on what is trying to take away our right to hunting the States and all of our states. Play is a big fan of them as well. Yeah, I'm glad you said that. That's who I'd give to

you as well. How will how how for wildlife? But it's how dot org group called how for wild Life Chess? Who are you playing for? Uh? I'm probably gonna do maybe like a local Montana thing. What do you guys think about like back country horsemen and trade? Didn't know what? I love it? If you if public Lands waters, public Land water and Access p l w A is a great one. Yeah, local p lw A er back country horsemen, I'd have to think about it. What are you thinking? Uh?

You got this comes out in June? This summer relizes this summer. Oh, this doesn't even come out if you don't even want it to come out. I forgot about that. This is in case somebody else really screws up on the podcast. We can't flit it in. It's going on June. Um,

I'll give bl w A and Corey Culkins. What do you think We're gonna have a low water ear So it's gonna be a high conflict here and plw A does a lot of the litigation for folks who like clothes off stream access and roads and stuff like that. They do a good job to keep it close to home and close to my heart. The Bob Marshall Wilderness Foundation a right. That is what's on the line here. With question ten, the topic is biology. This question comes

to is via Shane Lichty. If you have a question you think is right from Meatator Trivia, you can send it to trivia at the media dot com. Gorillas, dogs, beavers, rabbits, and mice all practice cope praphasia, which means they eat blank. Gorillas, dogs, beavers, rabbits, and mice all practice cope propasia, which means they eat blank. Nobody knew it seems like everyone's just taking educated guests here. Corey ever get one of those shirts? Uh, just Bob

Marshall standing there, that's a great sh what a beautiful fella. Yeah, their shirts shrunk so bad every time I get wanted to get awaar it for like a week and then finally have to throw it in the wash and ruin up and have to give it away. Maybe he's Corey's donation will get them some higher quality fabric. Everybody, would you mind reading that one more time? Just to make sure Gorillas gorillas, dogs, beavers, rabbits, and mice all practice coprophasia,

which means they eat blank. That changes it. Okay, it's not copenhagen A. You're gonna change your answer. I don't want to. Is the last question. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have cal saying poop, Chester saying grass, Clay saying feces, Karen saying poop, Corey saying grass, Seth saying poop, and Janice saying feces their own feces. The correct answer is feces making clay, who come today's winner? Yes, just feasts. They eat all kinds of feces, or they

eat their own feces. They eat their own. Now. While most animals do this to excess nutrients they couldn't digest the first time around, dogs are the exception. It's believed they do this as an ancestral response to protecting pack members from parasites in their stool. A two thousand twelve study estimated that about sixteen percent of dogs regularly eat their feces. I feel like not putting their own in front of feces is kind of like not putting ling in front of the car. Not at all I know,

can we get a definition of coprophasia. I think it means, uh, the practice of eating your own feces, so it is your own. Yes, but I'm not going to dig anybody for not writing your Yeah, so you got and be honest way on this one. I mean, come on, it's almost out there eating feces. They are eating feces. They are eating feces, but just not just an So you're trying to get me off of Clay Newcomb wins Clay Newcomb, what's going on? You're just like, yeah, they eat dog feces,

they fish feces. Dear femail for this one. How do people the broadcast and talk about who actually won this? Last question on this episode? Right to meat Eater at the meat eater dot com. Then Corey Culkin tested, I think in the court of law would be good. All right, Clay, where are you donating the five? I'll go with how for Wildlife How? Yeah, they do basically what they do and they are a young organization, so but they they highlight where anti hunting legislation is going on, and they

have a really streamlined process for people getting involved. So they're basically you go in, you sign up just one time, and then you kind of have an account with them, and it's pretty easy, and then you can send well thought out letters to the appropriate people easily, and you know, it's some people might be like, that's maybe not the best strategy, but it actually is a pretty darn good strategy just to pile pro whatever we're after emails into

these people's inboxes and they may not read them, but they know they got four thousand emails and say we're against this or for this, And they've been doing stuff like hosting zoom meetings for people that are that are planning on showing up at other, um, you know, government meetings to speak on behalf of said legislation or against it, and like hosting zoom meetings to sort of better armed people so they can better articulate their thoughts about you know, X,

Y and Z. So a lot of good education and we're sending five dollars their way. Well done, Clay. That's it for this episode. Join us next time for another round of Mediator Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins. Thanks Spencer, Thank you,
