TLDR
Rates of deposition in postnatal life determined that the chemical composition tended to be similar to that of rabbits grown in other seasons, while a tendency towards a higher degree of fatness in older animals was also observed in this season.

Lipid and fatty acid composition of rabbit meat: Part 1.-Apolar fraction.

TL;DR: The apolar lipid contents and the fatty acid composition of meat from two rabbit breeds fed two commercial diets of different protein and crude fibre levels have been studied and only clear influences of age, sex, breed, and/or feeding on the fatty acids C-16:0, C- 18:0 and C-18:2 of total and apolar lipids were found.

The influence of photoperiod on body weight gain, body composition, nutrient intake and hormone secretion.

TL;DR: Hormonal mechanisms involved in photoperiod-induced alterations in growth remain to be established and change in secretion of reproductive hormones in the peripubertal period of cattle may be associated with the anabolic effects previously described and is consistent with gonad dependency.

A study of the growth of sheep to maturity

TL;DR: The results confirm those of Searle, Graham & O'Callaghan (1972) based on tritium dilution which showed that post-puberal growth in sheep is of constant composition, and the results of the metabolic studies are shown to be consistent with the growth studies.
