Snowpiercer (film) spoilers, animal hunting 

So, my brother told me that at the end of the movie Snowpiercer, the protagonists find they can leave the train safely without freezing instantly, and the first thing they see is a living polar bear.

My brother's gripe? "Great, you're out, but what are you going to eat?"

There's... a fucking live polar bear. There could be more nearby. Where is the polar bear getting _its_ food.

See the fucking forest for the trees, man. :blobfacepalm:

Him: "Great, you're out, what are you going to eat?"

Me: "...there's a polar bear."

Him: "So you're just going to kill the first polar bear you see?"

Me: "No! There might be more nearby?"

Him: "And what? You're going to start breeding polar bears?"

Me: "I mean, not at first? I'm just saying that little controlled hunting would keep them going for a bit!"

@Jo iirc eating polar bears is a bad idea because they have parasites or sth

@noiob Even after a good cooking? :blobtilt:

@Jo idk I just heard that some polar expedition failed because of that

re: Snowpiercer (film) spoilers, animal hunting 

@noiob I looked at Wikipedia:

"...the meat is edible, despite some risk of trichinosis;"

And apparently that spreads through undercooked meat, so as long as it's well-cooked, the risk is probably minimised.

Plus it's either that or starvation. :blobshrug:
