Oryx

When our friends called to see if we wanted to have dinner with them tonight I said, "Sure! What are we having?" She said we were having Oryx. Sounded like a crazy kind of casserole to me, but turns out it's game...a wild African animal!

So, here is a picture of what we all had for dinner...(isn't he cute?!)

Here's a quick blurb about them that I found on the internet:

"Oryx inhabit eastern and southern Africa. Oryx live in herds on deserts and dry plains. They avoid exertion and direct sunlight. Oryx are capable of climbing mountains to reach water springs and salt licks."

The blurb does not mention that people hunt them and eat them for dinner. And it also does not say anything about them tasting a lot like steak and being yummy (even for 3 little boys) with a creamy gravy sauce poured over the top!
