Crawford MA, Gale MM, Woodford MH, 1970, Muscle and adipose tissue lipids of the warthog, Phacochoerus aethiopicus, International Journal of Biochemistry, Vol: 1, Pages: 654-658, ISSN: 0020-711X
1. 1. Linoleic and linolenic acids and their metabolic elongation products comprised more than 50 per cent of the total fatty acids extracted from warthog leg muscle; oleic acid was only 8-9 per cent of the total. 2. 2. A number of other acids were present in smaller amounts including the odd numbered C17:o, C21:o, and C23:o fatty acids and the Eigher long-chain saturated acids with even numbers. 3. 3. Adipose tissue was quite different: the total polyunsaturated content was lower (34 per cent) and there was less linoleic (17 per cent) but more linolenic add (17 per cent). The long-chain derivatives were present only in trace amounts. 4. 4. The marited difference between adipose and tissue lipids in animals free to select their own food suggests a re-evaluation of the term ' animal fat'. © 1970.
Crawford MA, Gale MM, Woodford MH, et al., 1970, Comparative studies on fatty acid composition of wild and domestic meats, International Journal of Biochemistry, Vol: 1, Pages: 295-305, ISSN: 0020-711X
1. 1. A comparison has been made of the fatty acids found in meat and fat from (a) wild ruminants free to select their own food (free-living) and (b) domestic bovid meat. 2. 2. The lipids of the meat from the free-living state were predominantly phospholipid. The lipids of adipose tissue from both free-living and domestic animals were predominantly triglyceride. 3. 3. The meat from free-living animals was low in total fat but rich in both linoleic acid and linolenic acid and their elongation products; adipose tissue in both free-living and domestic animals was low in polyenoic acids. 4. 4. The relatively low proportion of polyenoic acids in meat from domestic animals may therefore be attributable to infiltration of muscle by adipose tissue. 5. 5. These findings are discussed in relation to human diets vis-à-vis (a) modern and (b) evolutionary contexts. © 1970.

Crawford MA, Gale MM, Woodford MH, 1969, Linoleic acid and linolenic acid elongation products in muscle tissue of Sncerus caffer and other ruminant species., Biochem J, Vol: 115, Pages: 25-27, ISSN: 0264-6021
The metabolic elongation products of both linoleic acid and linolenic acid were found in muscle tissues of Syncerus caffer and other ruminants. The acids with four double bonds were predominantly in the linoleic acid series, whereas the higher degrees of unsaturation, mainly five double bonds, were in the linolenic acid series. The total linoleic acid and linolenic acid groups were present in the relative proportions of about 4:1, in contrast with the fish oils, where the acids are mainly in the linolenic acid series. The consistent occurrence of members of both groups of acids in the animals studied here suggests to us that both may be important for structural purposes.
