Hi all,

There is a nice historic article related to eating Australian wildlife at:
http://catalogue.nla.gov.au/Record/6374878

It tells of menu for the Acclimatisation Society's dinner : held at Scott's
Hotel, Collins Street West, on Wednesday, July 6, 1864

The Acclimatisation Society was that special group of people who imported
such wondrous animals and plants to Australia as the rabbit, starling, fox
and blackberry.

cheers

Jenny
