What, they didn't make you eat the Armadillo???!!!

As for eating rabbit, you can be packing 100 lbs of extra fat and still get protein sickness after a short period of eating nothing but lean meat. For the record, I don't recommend messing with wild rabbit internals.

Candy is dandy, but some whole grains will do you better and be a lot easier on your system. The body can only store about two days worth of carbs in the form of glycogen, vs and endless supply of fat (well, until morbidity catches up to ya). Of course, the body converts some carbs into fat, but it isn't very efficient at it.

Pemmican I tells ya. It is the best survival food you can find, and it is highly versatile. A little goes a long ways, especially if you have a good protein source. It's been THE survival food for the past few hundred years at least.
