37. That is why I use 1000 pounds instead of 1800 pounds.
Furthermore while they amy be only 1000 pounds of meat as you and I define the term meat, they are additional "meat" as that term is defined by the USDA (Including Bone and other parts of the animal). A lot of such USDA defined meat is used in dog and cat food. Thus part of the butchering of these animals may go to Human food overseas, but other parts may go to Pet food in the US.
