The fat dormouse ( Glis glis) is a traditional game species in the Republic of Croatia. Although today the fat dormouse is not frequently caught as game, it is still a source of animal protein in human nutrition in certain rural areas of Croatia. In this paper the chemical analysis of fat dormouse meat is presented. The average values for the quantity of water, fat, protein and ash in dormouse meat are comparable with the chemical composition of the meat of rabbits and brown hares, except for the important fact that rabbit and hare meat contains a greater quantity of fat on average. According to our results, the meat of fat dormice can be categorised as dietary food, characterised by a small percentage of fat (mean 2.83%) and a high amount of protein (mean 21.01%).
