You have to find the right angle. Try approaching it slowly from the ass end.

Yeah... try backing up and approaching again, or hitting your "G" key to open your bag, sometimes that will trigger the meat to show up. Keep scrolling your mouse wheel back and forth as you target the animal, it will eventually bring up the option to take the meat.

Yes, I had the same problem. There were no options over the goat I gutted, nothing to scroll over. Of course moving around doesn't work but until people have had it happen to them, they keep telling you to move around and scroll your mouse button. I had to leave the damn goat. <_< :emptycan:

I had to resist pretty damn hard when I read this:

I had the same problem yesterday. I ended up circling around the animal just about a dozen times moving my mouse all around. Then finally was able to get the meat. What happened for me was, as I was gutting meat I quickly looked away because I thought I heard a zom around me. Then when I looked back I wasn't able to click on the animals carcass. Probably looked like a retard circling the animal around for a couple minutes. At least I got my steaks :D

Also, just a tip here. If you select "take raw meat" from the options when rolling the mousewheel on the carcass, it will only give you ONE steak. If you want to take ALL the steaks, click "gear" on the carcass and then you can take them all. Pretty simple but plenty of new players (myself included) have run away from a cow with only one steak and left seven behind thinking they had just gotten them all.

Yes, the meat from the ass of the animal is the most tender and tastes the best :lol:
