I came across this surfing the web. The picture is apparently of a Chinese market stall. But what is that weird looking animal?

I would have been worse if the fur had not been scraped off. The meat of red-furred dogs is considered an aphrodisiac in many eastern cultures.

Well I just tried to use the google machine to find an image of an armadillo bag that resembled the first picture but the closest I could find were bags made out of actual armadillos.

They are so delicious! A couple of years ago I ate a "barbacoa" (some mexican dish), and honestly, it's the best barbacoa I've ever had. Thumbs up


...I hope it's not an endangered species... :oops:

You just got snitched out by our resident brown noser JerryHatake TallyMan in the moderator attention thread in the WrongPlanet.net forum. Isn't it nice to know that there is a do gooder ready to pounce on any transgression to get brownie points? It makes me all warm and fuzzy. You better snitch me out as well Jerry. :twisted:

Well, I have to say the photo was posted in innocence. I did not have a clue what it was hence the posting. I came across the picture via a link on Reddit and it was just captioned "Mystery animal at a Chinese market". I guess some people could find it offensive if it is indeed a dog. However I must say that I see dead animals hanging up in butchers shops all the time and don't find them too offensive - especially if the animal is cow and has some nice steaks on it :D
