Meet Arthur Boyt, from Cornwall, UK, who has been eating roadkill for over 50 years. Mr Boyt sees no issue in eating dead animals, he does not kill them himself but rather picks them up from the side of the road after they have been run over on roads around his home in Bodmin Moor, Cornwall.
His long-suffering wife, Sue Boyt, 59, does not share his taste in meat as she is a vegetarian. Mr Boyt collects the animals with a shovel, skins them and cuts the meat into joints, often making them into a stew or sandwich.
His diet regularly includes fox, hare, sparrow, deer, pigeon and even a porcupine he brought back from a holiday in Canada. Check his DNA, this man has some Africa in his blood. LOL!
He said: 'People are happy to eat an apple which has fallen out of the tree - so what's the difference? Just because it hasn't got a label on doesn't mean it's not edible.'
Mr Boyt's eating habits began when he was 13, after he discovered a dead pheasant in a park.
'I took it home and asked mum to cook it and it was delicious.'
