Carrying out a sanitary and veterinary expertise is a mandatory requirement which is necessary for the admission of livestock products, meat in particular, to sale. When carrying veterinary and sanitary expertise we often come up the attempts of meat products adulteration, for example when livestock meat is replaced to wild one and vice versa. Most often such adulteration cases are the results of illegal hunting. The purpose of our work is study horse and Manchurian wapiti carcasses anatomic features. The main methods of meat species determine are analysis of carcass appearance, organoleptic parameters analysis, laboratory tests as well as analysis and feature examination of anatomic structure of the inspected carcass. To determine meat species we applied methods of comparative and anatomic examination, organoleptic parameters analysis of meat samples, and laboratory tests. The suggested methods of examination can be used not only for determination of the whole animal carcasses species, but for small parts of the body. It is of great importance in conducting forensic and veterinary researches, when the number of parts can be finite. Maximal efficiency can be achieved only with complex use of enumerated methods.
