Additional Information
Using a set of pure animals as standards, animals sent in for Elk Purity testing are ‘mapped’ based on their genetic similarities to these standards. We currently estimate about a 6% margin of error. It also appears that good sample quality does improve the accuracy of the prediction. While the results are as accurate as possible at the time of receipt, some Elk may appear less ‘Pure’ because their ancestors are not represented in the standards. GenomNZ makes no attempt to define what constitutes as a ‘Pure Elk’ for regulatory purposes in the United States and Canada. Please contact your local representative to discuss any queries regarding this.Training
