Vendors at the Tomohon Extreme Meat market on Sulawesi island say business is booming and curious tourists keep arriving to check out exotic fare that enrages animal rights activists.
A wildlife market in Wuhan, the epicentre of the virus, is thought to be ground zero and there is suspicion it could have originated in bats.Its grubby stalls feature a dizzying array of animals including giant snakes, rats impaled on sticks and charred dogs with their hair seared off by blowtorches -- a gory scene described by some critics as "like walking through hell".
Restaurateur Lince Rengkuan -- who serves bats including their heads and wings stewed in coconut milk and spices -- says the secret is preparation."We cook it thoroughly and so far the number of customers hasn't gone down at all."
Even if there was no virus, who the hell eats bats & rats?
They will eat anything.
WTF.
Can’t fix stupid .....
hey remind me again how many canadians it was that died from SAARS? how about west nile? what about ebola? maybe it’s time to stop scaring old white people and start doing actual journalism? just a suggestion.
Not at all surprised😒

I guess you get what you pay for LOL
What hell is wrong with people... so disgusting...
Note to self stay away from countries where bat eating is a thing..
Don’t be so Chiroptophobic!
Will they ever learn?
WHO needs to step in and work towards global compliance on clousure of such outlets of deadly outbreaks.
