چکیده
Ensuring good game meat hygiene is a challenge in the hunting supply chain. Game carcasses can be soiled with intestinal contents or other substances from environment due to and handling practices. This soiling increase microbial load (ML) of carcass resulting meat. The aim this study was investigate whether rinsing unsoiled body cavities drinking water reduce ML carcasses. Carcasses 23 roe deer ( Capreolus capreolus ) were processed, either rinsed (n = 12) unrinsed 11), examined for ML. Swab muscle samples taken at killing day after 3 days cold storage. levels comparable an Pseudomonas spp. during Initial seems independent visible soiling. Other factors affecting initial should determined future studies. • effect less than expected. Visual impression not reflected higher counts load. influencing high investigated more detail

Ectoparasites on reintroduced roe deer Capreolus capreolus in Israel.
The ectoparasite fauna of reintroduced roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) was surveyed in a Mediterranean forest in Israel. Ectoparasites were collected from four female hand-reared deer during 2004 and 2005. Seasonality, predilection sites of infestation, and the apparent effect of the parasites are presented. This is the first study of roe deer parasites in the East Mediterranean. The ectoparasit...
متن کاملHand-rearing Roe deer Capreolus capreolus: practice and research potential
Four , Roe deer Capreolus capreolus were hand-reared and released into a 10 ha enclosed natural habitat. This paper describes the hand-rearing procedure, nutrition and development, which we compare with other documented cases. We illustrate the handling techniques that enabled us to maintain a close relationship with the hand-reared Roe deer in their adulthood and study them under semifree-rang...
