The aim of this study was to determine the influence of age and gender on the chemical composition, colour, texture and sensory attributes of wild boars meat (Sus scrofa, n = 48). The animals were analysed in 6 groups (n = 8), differed in age (piglets below 1 year, yearlings 1–2 years, and adults over 2 years) and gender (male and female). Protein content in raw meat was affected by age, whereas in roasted meat by animals gender. Colour parameters, excluding lightness, were affected by animals age and values of a*, b* and C increased along the animal age. Roasted meat from piglets showed the lowest hardness and chewiness in TPA test, however shear force was similar for piglets and yearling, yet lower than adults. Age affected sensory quality of roasted meat and meat from yearlings was scored higher than from adults. The results of the study clearly indicate the predominant influence of wild boar age over gender on the meat quality.
