Gutting a deer immediately after hunting it is necessary to prevent the meat from spoiling. Removing the internal organs helps cool down the body quickly and reduces the risk of bacterial growth, ensuring the meat remains safe to eat.

Gutting, or removing the entrails and other viscerals need to be removed immediately after the carcass has been found.

If you left your deer in a shed overnight should you worry about mice contaminating the meat?

After working in the meat business for over 5 years my biggest worry wouldn't be mice or rats. Trust me...you've eatten alot worst and never knew it. The big factor you have to worry about is....Did you clean and gut your deer in a timely manner? How cold is the outdoor temp while the deer is hanging? I genererally clean my deer with-in an hr or so after hunting...after removing all waste I clean with freshwater and make sure I rinse well. If the deer is at home he's been skinned so I cover him with cheese cloth...helps keeps flies, mice ect from getting to the meat.....not to mention my deer is hanging as well off the floor a few feet....if you can't hang your deer and it's cool enuff outside ...around 2-6 C max...then leave the hide on to protect the meat... The hide is always harder to get off as the body gets colder...so keep that in mind when your hunting and cleaning your game. Always remember temp is the biggest factor on how long your game will last..I try to let my deer hang for 14 days at around 2 C if possible..If the Temp is any where past 6...I clean and hang for 1 day then start cutting my meat to portions.


What is a fore-gut fermentor?

A fore-gut fermentor is the same name for a ruminant. Ruminants have a compartment where the feed they eat is fermented that is located prior to their true stomach, being the abomasum. Because the Abomasum is the true stomach and the other three chambers are more or less an extension of the esophagus, this is why ruminants are called fore-gut fermentors. Ruminants include such animals as cattle, sheep, goats, deer, bison, buffalo, yak, elk, moose, etc.
