No leopards or tigers left in Cambodia.

No salties.

No Siamese crocodiles/

No gharials.

Few black bears.

Few Mekong catfish.

Few pangolins.

Long list of animals no longer seen here.

So yes, there is something VERY wrong with eating wild meat.

Perhaps Nick Marx, the Director of Wild Aid should explain this to you.

At least then we can have a more informed perspective.

Totally agree with TG. ALL wild animals in Cambodia are, or will become, endangered species if they continue to be hunted for commercial gains. I am not against local/indigenous people hunting animals for food, but the problem is that it's much more lucrative for indigenous hunters to sell the meat to restaurants or wildmeat sellers at the market.
Also, just because eating wild meat is an ancient custom, that doesn't mean that it's a good thing for Cambodia today. I am quite impressed that the younger generation are realising that times change and that some species need to be protected from hunting.

Leopards, Siamese crocs and pangolins seem plentiful up here. For the moment..

For all of human history, people have hunted and eaten wild animals. This won't change, no matter how much it offends your delicate European sensibilities. Hurling infantile personal insults at all those who disagree with you won't change things either.

There should also be a total ban on wild fish being caught.

What, you would deprive the Khmer of prahok?

While I agree with your point, you wrote this:

There are some leopards left although it's doubtful there will be for long. The only wild populations of Siamese Crocodiles are here is the Cardamons and in a small part of Indonesian Borneo. Gharials aren't native here.

Don't forget the Siamese crocodile eggs found in Sre Ambel, Koh Kong last year.

My soldiers homies gave my friend * a rabbit today. I'm sure it came from a pet shop and isn't a Burmese hare (Lepus peguensis), which are actually becoming more common and bordering on being pests in this area, as they favour deforested habitat and natural predators have gone.

*Not me, although I take responsibility for the dog with no tail.
