How then would you define something that's ok to eat and something that isn't?
I think lion meat is disgusting, but at least I'm honest enough to admit that it's only because I've been exposed to the idea that things we already eat are "ok" and things we don't, aren't.
I think the pertinent questions are... How large is Tasmania? How inhabited is it (by humans)? How rare does the Tasmanian tiger need to be to go unnoticed for that many years? Is it reasonable for that number of Tasmanian tigers in that size of land to have been a sustainable population for that long? I hope it's a yes.
Maybe it was "OH GOD I'M GOING TO DIE....... better go while eating a delicious sandwich." Then later on "Oh look at that, not actually dead! Better get to a hospital then."
