In two separate experiments, carcasses of intact Kiko × Boer male kids were assigned randomly to tension treatments applied 30 min postmortem: 1) suspended by the Achilles tendon (AT); 2) suspended from the pelvic bone with front and hind legs tied together (TS); or 3) suspended by the Achilles tend...

Warner-Bratzler shear force values for the LM were reduced (P
