*100 grams equals ~3.5 oz
In the above chart, all visible fat was trimmed before analysis. However, surveys show that carcasses of domesticated animals have 25
to 30 percent fat while the average fat content of wild game animals is only 4.3 percent. Not only is the quantity of fat lower in game,
but the quantity is also healthier. Fat from wild game contains a much higher proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids-good fat- and is
lower in saturated fat-bad fat. -Source: North Dakota State University
