Imported Canadian Wild turkeys were indoor fattened by commercial feed mixtures for the purposes of hunting districts. Turkeys were fattened to a live weight 4,672.0 g at 138 days of age. Their carcass yield and amounts of breast and thighs were found 77.84 + 0.57%, 32.99 +- 0.55 and 26.02 + 0.52%, respectively, with no differences in sex. The percentage of valuable parts (breast, thingh) amounted to 59.01%, regardless of sex, and that of back and wings was 40.99%. A proportion of epithelial fat to live weight and to carcass was 1.08% and 1.41 + 0.15%, respectively. Both females and males, the content of plasmatic protein in breast muscle was 23.57 + 0.25%, in edible part of femural muscle was 17.83 + 0.18% and that of tibial muscle was 19.17 + 0.20%. There were highly significant differences between edible parts. The pecentage of intramuscular fat was 1.3 + 0.11% in breast muscle, 14.12 + 0.77% in femural muscle and 6.42 + 0.38% in tibial one. Sensory assessment of cooked meat showed a higher quality of tasteness, tenderness and juiciness in Canadian Bronze Wild turkeys, as compared to HYBRID 2001
