Game
The life of the animal is seen in the
appearance, aroma, flavor, and texture for
their flesh
The meat is compact with a robust flavor
and less fat
Nutrition
Most farm-raised animals are generally more
active and less well fed than domesticated
animals
They tend to be lower in cholesterol and have
approximately one-third fewer calories than beef

of wild game
Farm or farm-raised game is only subject to
voluntary inspections for wholesomeness
Generally, game is processed under federal
inspections as domesticated meat and
poultry
State inspections vary but are increasingly
being expanded and improved
Only USDA approved countries are
permitted to export game into the U.S.
