	abstract = {Fifty-eight possums (28 male, 30 female) were captured from the   wild. Animals were grouped into ages of 1, 2-4 and 5+ years. Males   were always heavier than females of the same age, while carcass weight   increased significantly with age up to 5+ years. Age had a more   pronounced effect on carcass composition and meat quality than sex. At   all ages, and in both sexes, possums produced carcasses which were high   in dissected lean (78-80\%) and low in fat (0.8-2.6\%). Their meat was   very high in protein (24-26\%) and low in fat (1.4-2.0\%). Tenderometer   results showed that all age groups produced meat which would be rated as   acceptably tender.    },
