Carcass yield and proximate composition of bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus)
This work evaluated five classes of weight of bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) seeking to define the ideal slaughter weight for the species. We used 79 bullfrogs, distributed in a completely randomized design (class 1 < 100 g (n = 10); class 2 from 101 to 150 g (n = 17); class 3 from 151 to 200 g (n = 24); class 4 from 201 to 250 g (n = 14); and ...
