Now you’ve spoiled my planned “Giraffe barbeque” for Lag Bo’Omer

#3, who said you can't shecht it?

Of course you can shecht giraffe, and if the lungs are kosher you can eat it. But why would you want to if it doesn’t taste good? You’d only want to do it once, just to say you’d done it, and how much of a market is that? And where are you going to get a giraffe from in the first place?

who cares if the meat is fatty, why cant u shecht it cuz of that? and im in a dorm with blocked internet so cant watch the vid :(
