British artist, Yoko Ono eat dog to protest Royal fox hunt.

[edbermac]

LONDON - A British artist has eaten chunks of a Corgi dog, the breed favored by Queen Elizabeth II, live on radio to protest against the royal family's treatment of animals. Mark McGowan, 37, said he ate "about three bites" of the dog meat, cooked with apples, onions and seasoning, to highlight what he called Prince Philip's mistreatment of a fox during a hunt by the Queen's husband in January.

"It was pretty disgusting," McGowan said of the meal, which he ate while appearing on a London radio station on Tuesday. Yoko Ono, another guest on the show, also tried the meat. "I've never tasted anything like it — it was grey and had a very funny smell. It was horrible," McGowan told Reuters.

McGowan said he was angry that the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, of which the royal family is a patron, had not prosecuted Prince Philip for hunting and killing the fox. The RSPCA said the fox did not suffer. Corgis are the favored dogs of the queen, who has owned more than 30 of them during her reign.

The dog died of natural causes at a Corgi breeders and was prepared and cooked by others for McGowan.
McGowan is well known for his outlandish performance stunts. He ate a swan in another protest against the queen. Swans are protected by the monarchy.

7. Maybe next she'll club a seal to protest the wearing of fur.

Eating dog meat...On the Radio? :wtf:

[idgiehkt]

15. this makes no sense to me

Foxhounds are the dogs used to hunt foxes. Corgis don't hunt, they can barely run, their legs are so short. Why eat a damn corgi...man how stupid can you be.

8. How is disrespecting the life and worthiness of a dog going to change attitudes toward foxes?

:wtf:

[alphafemale]

10. That's what I was thinking.

Plus, it's the radio. What do they chew and belch near the mic?

[idgiehkt]

14. Really, they should have eaten one of the hunters

this is absurd.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

11. Eating animals that died of "natural causes" is perhaps ...

unwise. blecchh!

As to the meat being grey and not tasty, well, yeah, it died of natural causes.

:puke:

But, since it was Yoko Ono, maybe we just call it "art" and quietly move on to the next topic.
:rofl:

Now if that guy had eaten Yoko, I'd be impressed.

Her only fault is that she never had a stage hand throw her bag off a bridge.
