To quote Dr T J Fletcher from the World Deer farming Conference of 1998. Long
and widespread was the period, perhaps over 50,000 years, during which red deer
can be said to have overwhelmingly the meat of Europeans, and during which elsewhere
in the world other game animals contributed the staple meat ration to other peoples.
Noting this Prof M Crawford has for several years been actively promoting the
view that man has still not evolved a physiology to cope with the fattier meats
of domesticated livestock, but is instead best adapted to eating the meat of game;
as he states "99.8% of mans life on earth has been spent eating wild game food,
and man is still a wild animal not yet adapted to eating other than wild foods"
More people are turning to venison as a healthier option to other forms of meat
