The salmon seasons on the US West coast have been essentially non-existent for a couple of years. The Abalone season has been suspended for over 5 years. Both of those meats are absolutely amazing, especially when you prepare and eat them the day you caught them. I miss those two the most.

Alligator
It's best if ground up, like sausage or burgers.
Interesting, I've only had filets and fried nuggets. How's the taste and texture of ground alligator?
Venison, lobster, scallops, crab, and shrampies!
Maybe an unpopular one... but while I was in Iceland I had foal. You can get it at any grocery market there. It's without question the best meat I've ever had.
Cariboo. Elk is a close second.
Venison is great.
Duck but gator tail is a close second.
Nile Tilapia.
Also a type of duck we in my region of Brazil call "marreco", the name in English seems to be Teal or Garganey.
Ostrich and reindeer are both very good
Deer, Grouper, Tuna, Duck
probably catfish
Duck
Rattle snake is pretty good from what I can remember. Like chicken, but... different
Stringy, sinewy, tough, but good at absorbing whatever sauce you put on it
Got to thinking, it's kinda like shrimp, but taste kinda like chicken. It's been like 15 years.

There are other meats?
Long pork /s
Bacon
Hotdog!
Mostly racoon from what I'm led to believe.
Yak
Does veal count? Technically beef but also not beef
Veal is beef because it comes from a calf. Beef is defined as any flesh or meat that comes from a cow and is used for food.
Black beans. It is my favorite meat substitute for most recipes
