The new findings come as the government puts the finishing touches to SA’s new game meat strategy, which aims to formalise, transform and expand an industry dominated by impala, springbok, kudu, wildebeest and blesbok.
When student Angelique Myburgh realised little research had been done into zebras as a source of food, she launched her study with the assistance of lecturer Helet Lambrechts and the then-head of Stellenbosch’s animal sciences department, Louw Hoffman. Offal is a low-cost, nutrient-rich protein, says Myburgh, and part of the traditional diet for most South Africans, meaning the contribution from zebras has the potential to improve food security, especially in rural areas.
BISouthAfrica I like it's steak.
BISouthAfrica I Rember back when I was in school, and the rumor spur burgers had zebra in them, and they were delicious. On the other hand, horse meat smells horrible when its cooked (boiled) so who knows.
BISouthAfrica You're 24% right ✊🏽
