The first time I met my Uncle from South Africa he started telling me all about their life in South Africa and he told me that they would often eat lions and zebras. I was really quite horrified, but figured as you could buy crocodile and Emu here in Australia that it was possible that in Africa they would eat Lions and Zebras.
He later told me he was making the whole thing up.
I was 20 at the time.
