EnglishOne hundred eighty-nine Catalan crossbreed donkeys (Equus africanus asinus) were used to evaluate the effect of gender (gelding, n=106; or female, n=83) and live weight at slaughter (LW) (kg, n=37) on carcass characteristics, non-carcass components and meat and fat color. Geldings had greater (P151kg). Meanwhile, the LW did not affect the color (L*, a* and b* values) of subcutaneous fat (P>0.05). These results suggested that both gender and live weight should be considered when producing meat from donkeys. It is advisable to use geldings weighing more than 126kg at slaughter to obtain the greatest weight and carcass yield. Key words: carcass characteristics; donkey; gender; weight; meat portuguesO objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o efeito do genero e peso vivo (PV) nas caracteristicas da carcaca, componentes nao-carcaca e cor da carne e gordura dos burros (Equus africanus asinus). Foram utilizados 189 animais de sexo castrado ou feminino. Os castrados tiveram peso de carcaca maior (P 151kg). Enquanto isso, o PV nao afetou a cor (valores de L *, a * e b *) de gordura subcutânea (P> 0,05). O peso maior da carcaca e o curativo com efeitos limitados em componentes nao carcaca, cor de carne e gordura foram observados em castrados com peso vivo superior a 126kg.
