Armadillo Leprosy Risks

http://www.foodsafetynews.com/2011/05/leapin-lizards-dillos-carry-leprosy/

Since twenty percent of armadillos can carry leprosy, remember to have it tested for that first. Always handle it with thick, chemical-safe gloves, and a protective face mask. Cooking it twice (like bear meat), is safest because of leprosy contamination. It's wisest to just avoid contact with or consumption of armadillos, however. Similarly to bear meat, and other wild game, it's associated with health risks for the poor, who are illiterate and malnourished. It should be handled with protective gear. Also, it could still leave leprosy on kitchen counters, etc.

It could probably be safely put in a crockpot, on high, for four hours, covered, with organic, fat-free, reduced-sodium, chicken broth. Then, transfer it to a misted (grapeseed oil) mini-muffin/mini-cupcake pan, after forming it into ground mini-burgers with a Cajun blackening seasoning, organic eggs, beaten up, and organic quinoa flour. Roast it again, in the oven, at 350°F, middle rack, preheated, for 40 minutes, covered with foil, and make sure it's thirty degrees hotter than the fully cooked temperature requirement for each single mini-burger patty.
