It wasn’t just the dead bear.
Days after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. admitted to taking a bear carcass from the side of the road and placing it in Central Park as a prank a decade ago, he said that has been picking up roadkill his “whole life” and once had a “freezer full of it” at home.
The comment came as the independent presidential candidate was leaving an upstate New York courtroom Wednesday where he had testified in a lawsuit seeking to exclude him from the state’s ballot in November.
The trial has focused on whether Kennedy improperly listed a residence in the New York City suburb of Katonah as his home address on his nominating petitions, when he has actually been living in the Los Angeles area since 2014.
He used to keep roadkill in the fridge to feed his pet hawk. It wasn’t even his fridge, it belonged to friends who would let him crash there. They’d ask why not just buy chickens for the hawk to eat, but rfk is a fucking weirdo and thought that keeping roadkill in his friend’s fridge was a better feeding option for his hawk
i was raised by people like this. the correct answer is that he saved a buck or two.
The hawk likes the taste of roadkill/carrion better. My partner is trying to get in to falconry and has done an uncomfortable amount of research on the topic.
