The true statement among the options is:
D) Ratites contain less fat than beef, chicken, or pork.
Ratites, such as ostriches, emus, and rheas, are generally leaner than traditional poultry and red meats, making them a lower-fat alternative. The other statements are not accurate: ratites are not native to North America (A), they are large birds (not small game birds) (C), and while ostrich meat can be considered tender, it's not universally classified as "tender white meat" like chicken (B).
