French translation:présenter aux concours agricoles
Explanation:
C'est une autre manière de traduire, non pas "to show animals", mais la phrase "il élève des porcs et des poulets qu'il présente aux concours agricoles locaux".
S'il faut vraiment traduire le lieu du concours agricole (arena), on peut mettre "qu'il présente à la foire aux bestiaux locale".
