Zebulon child of Tommi and Thaddus found a dead beast and ate it. Putting aside the image of Zebulon’s fingers sinking into the beast, the economic nature of this transaction is worth pausing to appreciate: 1) The act of eating a dead beast is revolting. 2) The production of dead beasts, fallen animals that are explicitly not meat, cannot be easily taken over by traditional forms of meatification such as hunting or large-scale beast farming. In that
sense dead beasts are more like truffles or sapphires than hamburgers.
