The flesh of rabbits and hares is more like poultry or game than meat, but is too close in fiber to be as digestible.

Pigeons and many other birds come under none of the heads given.

As a rule, flesh is tender in proportion to the smallness of the animal, and many varieties are eaten for the description of which we have no room here.
FISH forms the only animal food for a large part of the world.

It does not possess the satisfying or stimulating properties belonging to flesh, yet the inhabitants of fishing-towns are shown to be unusually strong and healthy.

The flesh of some fish is white, and of others red; the red holding much more oil, and being therefore less digestible.
