Noice stuff...
Crocodile...good if cooked well. Like a cross between fish and nice pork. Buffalo and kangaroo are damn good. My dad told me (he was an infamous liar, so proably not true) that the Aussies sold kangaroo to the Americans in about the 40's and told them it was beef. It's nicer than beef though.
Emu...tastes like chicken quelle suprise. Rousette is apparently good, that's fruit bat to you. Eel sushi is okay, but pretty dull. Tastes like fish from the chippie.
Conch is mingin. That's those big, impressive-looking seashells that they sell in tourist shops for like 50 bucks. It tastes like rotten fish, and mings heartily. I ate it raw in ceviche (mexican stylee raw fish cooked in lime juice, chilli, corriander, and tomato. Beautiful with anything other than conch) a few times before realising that it wasn't just the shoddy eatery serving me rotten seafood. Squid ink is not only called that because of its colour, but also its taste. I thought a bit too hard about nothing one day in history class and got a gobfull of ink so I'm not just being melodramatic...
