The bulk would go for food but there would be a lot of       leftovers like heads and scales and guts that could be put to other       uses. Probably like they say about pigs, everything is used but the oink.              I did a little regulatory work many years ago on an artificial crab bait       made from plastics and fish meal.              https://www.google.com/patents/EP0208528A2?cl=en              Similar was a fox bait for delivering rabies vaccine. Recall testing in       France. Similar reference after I left company.              http://www.jwildlifedis.org/doi/pdf/10.7589/0090-3558-30.4.497              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
