“…The meat of farm‐raised mink is also usually discarded after their pelts are harvested because the animals were fed drugs and hormones during their rearing that are supposed to make their pelts beautiful but can be harmful to human health when consumed (Niu et al., 2022). Mink caught in the wild are also inedible because their meat contains high levels of toxins and heavy metals derived from their predatory activities.…”

“…Mink caught in the wild are also inedible because their meat contains high levels of toxins and heavy metals derived from their predatory activities. In a country like China, where mink farming is widespread, there is growing suspicion that fraudulent individuals are buying mink carcasses and selling them to illegal food processors, where they are substituted as beef or mutton buns (Niu et al., 2022).…”

Despite the numerous studies on food safety and authenticity, especially for meat and meat products, not enough studies have been conducted focusing exclusively on game species and other unusual meat animals. As a result of the European horse scandal, the horse is currently the target of many meat authenticity studies. With this review, we aim to present various DNA-based methods that have been used by researchers to identify, detect, and quantify game, uncommon meat animals, and wildlife species. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is considered the standard method for DNA analysis in meat authenticity testing. However, in this paper, we present several other methods that may or may not involve the PCR technique. For this purpose, we systematically reviewed 131 articles selected according to various criteria such as target animal species, method of analysis, year of publication, and so forth. The result of our study shows the most studied game and uncommon meat species, PCR-and non-PCR-based methods for game meat analysis, and DNA-based methods in wildlife conservation. With this study, researchers can find detailed information about frequent game species used as adulterants for regular meat products and the DNA-based techniques to identify them.
