Britain’s foot and mouth epidemic will create a glut of venison. Some 250,000
wild deer are shot annually in Britain for meat, and the cull should go ahead as
usual this year because it is needed to keep deer numbers steady. Usually most
of the meat is exported, as British supermarkets buy mainly from game farms. But
it’s unlikely that any wild venison will be exported this year. Even after
export bans on British meat end, foreign importers will still be worried about
FMD infection. The hunting industry hopes British consumers will eat more
venison which, they point out, is low in cholesterol.
