Venison
Venison originally meant the meat of a game animal but now refers primarily to the meat of antlered ungulates such as elk or deer (or antelope in South Africa). Venison can be used to refer to any part of the animal, so long as it is edible, including the internal organs. Venison, much like beef or pork, is categorized into specific cuts, including roast, sirloin, and ribs. Etymology The word derives from the Latin ''venari'', meaning "to hunt or pursue". This term entered the English language through Norman French ''venaison'' in the 11th century, following the Norman conquest of England and the establishment of Royal Forests. Definition ''Venison'' originally described meat of any game animal killed by hunting and was applied to any animal from the families ''Cervidae'' (true deer), ''Leporidae'' (rabbits and hares), ''Suidae'' (wild boar) and certain species of the genus ''Capra'' (goats and ibex). In southern Africa, the word ''venison'' refers to the meat of antelope, a ...

True Deer
Deer or true deer are hoofed ruminant mammals forming the family Cervidae. The two main groups of deer are the Cervinae, including the muntjac, the elk (wapiti), the red deer, and the fallow deer; and the Capreolinae, including the reindeer (caribou), white-tailed deer, the roe deer, and the moose. Male deer of all species (except the water deer), as well as female reindeer, grow and shed new antlers each year. In this they differ from permanently horned antelope, which are part of a different family (Bovidae) within the same order of even-toed ungulates (Artiodactyla). The musk deer (Moschidae) of Asia and chevrotains (Tragulidae) of tropical African and Asian forests are separate families that are also in the ruminant clade Ruminantia; they are not especially closely related to Cervidae. Deer appear in art from Paleolithic cave paintings onwards, and they have played a role in mythology, religion, and literature throughout history, as well as in heraldry, such as red dee ...
