Did you know... To save a meal for later, Northern Shrikes may use a sharp object (barbed wire, a stick or something similar) to impale/hook/hang the food. 
In meat science training programs, people learn that hanging meat is the first stage of "good butchery" that ultimately leads to the meat becoming tender.
Who did it first, the bird or the human?
