Carcass weight is the weight of what's left over of an animal that has been slaughtered, bled out, skinned, gutted and head, tail and legs are removed. Hot carcass weight is the weight of that carcass before it's put in the cooler to cure.
Slaughter poultry Carcass yield
Since no carcass weight is the same, we will only use the average carcass weight taken from a Hereford-Angus cross steer that was finished at 1400 lbs. Doing the math, the carcass weight (dressing yield) of a 1400 lb steer is 0.58 x 1400 = 812 lbs. Then the amount of ready-to-eat meat (meat deboned and after cooking) from that carcass weight is 686 x 0.49 = 400 lbs. However, assuming by "meat" you are referring to the meat off the carcass and not from that cut off the carcass and cooked, we will use the carcass weight for this question. Thus, the number of animals it takes to get 560,000,000 lb of meat is: 560,000,000/812 = 689655.1724 = ~689,656 cattle.
That all depends on the liveweight, age and breed of the animal. The rule of thumb, however is that the warm carcass weight or dressing yield is typically 58% of the liveweight.
Carcass-Weight Equivalent (CWE) is the weight of meat cuts and meat products converted to an equivalent weight of a dressed carcass. Includes bone, fat, tendons, ligaments, and inedible trimmings (whereas product weight may or may not).
Carcass weight refers to the weight of an animal after it has been slaughtered and processed, excluding non-edible parts such as the skin, head, feet, and internal organs. It is a key metric in the meat industry, as it helps determine the yield of meat that can be obtained from an animal. Carcass weight is typically used to assess the efficiency of production and is an important factor in pricing and marketing meat products.

The average live chicken, once butchered, will lose approximately 20 percent of its weight. There is approximately 1 pound of unusable chicken parts removed from the carcass.
It depends on the species. The largest possum species of all is the cuscus, which may have a body length of 60cm and a weight of 3kg to 6kg. The largest species of common possum, the brushtail possum, has a body length of about 55cm, and a tail length of some 40cm. It weighs between 1.2kg and 3.5 kg. On the other hand, an adult mountain pygmy possum weighs only about 45 grams and easily fits into a human adult's hand. Note that possums are not the same as opossums.
A biological weapon is a tool that deploys germs or bacteria to harm, such as a virus in a warhead, or an old cow carcass thrown over a castle wall. Or a dead possum through your neighbors window
