This study focuses on Capra aegagrus aegagrus, a subspecies of wild goat listed as vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Hunting of males aged 8 years and older is allowed due to their low reproductive capacity. This study aimed to analyze essential and potentially toxic elements in meat of male C. aegagrus aegagrus from a high altitude protected area in Mersin using inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). Thigh muscle samples from 18 males aged 10 years and older were analyzed. Phosphorus, potassium, and calcium were the most abundant macro elements in the samples, while sodium and magnesium were the lowest. Iron was the most abundant microelement, followed in decreasing order by zinc, copper, manganese, boron, selenium, cobalt, chromium, vanadium, and nickel. Among the potentially toxic metals, lead had the highest concentration. Arsenic, antimony, strontium, cadmium, aluminum, and barium were found in lower concentrations. Tin was not detected in the samples. High levels of potassium, phosphorous, and iron suggest nutritional benefits but potentially toxic elements must be monitored to ensure safety.

Bu çalışma, Uluslararası Doğa Koruma Birliği tarafından hassas olarak listelenen yaban keçisi alt türü Capra aegagrus aegagrus'a odaklanmaktadır. Üreme kapasitelerinin düşük olması nedeniyle 8 yaş ve üzeri erkeklerin avlanmasına izin verilmektedir. Bu araştırma, Mersin'deki yüksek rakımlı bir koruma alanından alınan erkek C. aegagrus aegagrus etindeki temel ve potansiyel toksik elementleri indüktif eşleşmiş plazma-optik emisyon spektroskopisi (ICP-OES) kullanarak analiz etmeyi amaçlamıştır. Yaşları 10 ve daha büyük olan 18 erkekten alınan uyluk kası örnekleri incelenmiştir. Örneklerde fosfor, potasyum ve kalsiyum en fazla bulunan makro elementler olurken, sodyum ve magnezyum en düşük seviyedeydi. Demir en fazla bulunan mikro elementti ve onu azalan sırayla çinko, bakır, manganez, bor, selenyum, kobalt, krom, vanadyum ve nikel değerleri izliyordu. Potansiyel toksik metaller arasında en yüksek konsantrasyon kurşun olarak tespit edilmiştir. Arsenik, antimon, stronsiyum, kadmiyum, alüminyum ve baryum daha düşük konsantrasyonlarda bulunmuştur. Örneklerde kalay tespit edilememiştir. Yüksek potasyum, fosfor ve demir seviyeleri besinsel faydalara işaret etmektedir, ancak güvenliği sağlamak için potansiyel olarak toksik elementlerin izlenmesi gereklidir.
