Concerning the organ meat discussion:
I've never saved moose live even though I like beef calf liver.
One of my hunting partners is a DVM and MD and while breaking down a very large old bull, he was giving us some anatomy lessons that were all very interesting. I was removing the kidneys for a native friend and the discussion then turn to liver flukes and we decided to open the liver. After a knife slash, the liver internals began to ooze and flow slowly......WTH? Doc figures that the uric acid from the bulls drinking cow urine probably has an adverse effect on the liver and may be a reason the bulls life span is half of the cows life span.
It's a plausible theory to consider as you fry some liver in camp.
Funny that you mention the cow urine. The first chapter on this page in Alaska’s Wolf Man seems to support your hypothesis…
