Butchering Basics for Survival
Even vegetarians need more protein than we can normally get from plants. In normal times if we choose not to eat meat, we can fairly easily obtain non-meat foods with additional protein and supplements that can assist in staying healthy. After a SHTF scenario that won’t be so easily done. Everyone will be in the position of needing to butcher whatever we can in order to remain healthy and to feed those depending upon us for food. Whether you raise livestock, hunt or trap they all eventually have to be slaughtered and butchered.

Please remember the creature gave up its life to feed you and do your slaughtering as humanely as possible. Waste not want not applies here too. If you kill it be sure to use all of it that you possibly can.
