    Does anyone know where I could find exotic meats in or around Dublin/North Wicklow?

    Looking to get ostrich/kangeroo/crocodile/llama/wildebeest/etc...

    Just something out of the ordinary, ya know? :P I heard about a butcher in Terenure but haven't been able to find out much about it, not sure if its even still there!

    Any and all help appreciated!

    If frozen is ok, then I saw one of either ostrich or kangaroo in Iceland, can't remember which though!

    No komodo dragon though as it's not a Family Business.

    Downey's butchers in Terenure is the place you've heard of, but it closed a while ago.

    I picked up some fresh wild irish venison steaks in ALDI a few months ago, am pretty sure they were from this supplier.

    Actually they have some good information on their website about their stockists around the place if you don't want to order online but likely you will get a subset of their full selection in the stores:
