Bessie Liddle proudly displaying a goanna lizard that she has just killed. Bessie later cooked the lizard in the hot sand ashes of a campfire: it tasted like tender pork tenderloin. The goanna ('go-anna') is an Australian reptile that is also known as the monitor lizard. Image from the book project Man Eating Bugs: The Art and Science of Eating Insects.
