Months ago, I looked for a table showing the number of land animals slaughtered by country and species. I had seen various numbers quoted on various web sites, often without any indication as to source, and sometimes with only a secondary source. Sometimes an organization was cited as the source without providing specifics.

After some research, I found there was a single source for such data. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The FAO maintains data sets and publishes the methodology on how the stats were derived. The FAO latest data on animals slaughtered is from 2017.
