It's not the peritoneum, it's the omentum. Another place folks and animals can store fat. Perfectly normal.

We have a winner. Omentum is in em all and does some pretty amazing things. It will even try to plug holes in the abdomen from wounds.

My son's first deer had a lot of it.
Ever since then he won't eat Ramen Noodles.
Lol

You da' Man!

It's called the Peritoneum. All mammals have it. Even us!

Actually, it's called omentum. A very vascular fatty sheath. It's purpose is the bodies first line of defense in case of bowel injury. It'll wrap the area and help seal damaged area and promote healing.

the peritoneum is a Saran wrap like thin layer that coats the entire abdominal cavity. It even coats the testes as it gets pushed out when the testicles descend into the scrotum through the inguinal ring.

Not trying to be a smart ass but all those anatomy lectures come in handy.

I've only seen it that pronounced a few times, but it's good to go! Great buck by the way!!! Congratulations!

I've only ever heard it called caul fat, but whatever it's called, they all have it.

 

[Popcorn]

Most of the deer we harvest in southern Trigg have that fat. Lots of high quality food!

Joe, That stuff is a sign you are feeding them right

 

[timberjack86]

Glad to hear you kept the meat! Should be some awesome venison!

 

[Wildcat]

Sign of a very healthy deer.

It's caul fat. Steven Rinella from Meateater uses it to cook with. He's actually a big proponent of keeping it for use in cooking.

Yup. And supposedly, it's delicious. Unlike the tallow fat.
I've not tried it, but will someday

Dang nice buck also! Congrats

I need to quit posting after a day of looking at 10,000 trail-cam photos. My brain is mush at that point.
