摘要: Abstract Individual muscles were dissected from the forequarter and hindquarter regions of four castrate entire male red deer, aged 27 months, just before rut. Six found to be significantly lighter as a proportion total side weight in castrates, heavier. Overall, proportionately 7% lighter(P<0.01) castrates heavier (P<0.05). Castrates also had heads than males(P<0.05).
