Thanks for responding!
While I had thought of the possibility of other animals wanting to get =
at the meat, I'd not thought of smaller hungry types--insects, fish, =
etc.

Subject: Re: [Regia-NA] Preserving in Period
Having tried this method for preserving meat for very short periods i =
thought i'd comment.I've found that meat is'nt preserved in fast flowing =
cold mountain streams but it does slow down the decay.The problem is =
that there are still insects that can happily navigate in fast flowing =
streams so a cloth bag of some discription is a must to keep the bugs =
off for a short period of time.That is of course presuming that there =
are no hungry predators of the type that still exist in the US around to =
snatch your hard won meat?This was tried in Scotland in Autumn when all =
the midges had gone on holiday.
Regards,
mik

Yes, yes, this is an old thread, but I was curious if folks might =
