A special hunt was held here on a coastal peninsula located next to the salt water due to the deer being seriously overpopulated. I came home with two small deer, and one of them must have been eating sea grass at low tide because it tasted like sea water. I couldn't stand the taste of eating it but my wife actually liked it more because it reminded her of eating "surf & turf". The other deer was a spikehorn that didn't taste that way though, so it must have had a more normal diet.
