From HM Revenue & Customs · VAT Food

Where a live animal, which was not previously generally reared for food in the UK, becomes introduced into the UK and becomes widely used as food, it may be zero-rated. This has happened with ostriches.

Requests for zero-rating of additional species should be referred to the appropriate policy section: see VFOOD0280.
