Cooked beef, venison, and elk are moderately high in heme iron. A 3-ounce portion contains over 2.1 mg. Venison and elk tend to be higher in iron than beef because they are leaner and don’t contain as much fat as beef does.

I do too, Tony. I’m quite fond of venison and elk. I didn’t mention it, but bear meat is exceptionally high in iron. In fact, people need to exercise care if they eat bear liver. It is so high in iron that they can actually overdose.
I love of red meat and especially game meat, yummy
