BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) — A fish and wild game supper is featuring some Vermont road kill on the menu. New York's WPTZ-TV reports Hotel Vermont will offer three animals injured or killed on the road as it hosts the Wild About Vermont event on Nov. 7. The event will feature a game supper with donations from hunters and fishermen in the state. Residents say it's a quirky and interesting idea. The supper will cost $75 and will be prepared by chef Doug Paine. Also on the menu will be deer, bear, moose and muskrat. Paine says it will be delicious and well worth trying. He says he's sure many residents haven't tried beaver but would probably like it if they did. ___ Information from: WPTZ-TV, http://www.thechamplainchannel.com
