Tour Scotland Photograph Venison Stall

Tour Scotland photograph of a merchant selling venison at Perth Farmers Market, King Edward Street, Perth, Scotland. Venison can be used to refer to any part of the deer, so long as it can be consumed, including the flesh and internal organs. Venison, much like beef, is categorized into specific cuts, including roast, sirloin, and ribs. The word derives from the Latin venari, to hunt or pursue. This term entered English through Norman in the 11th century, following the Norman invasion of England, and the establishment of Royal Forests.
