agree  José J. Martínez: puede tambi[en ser animales sacrificados pero depende de lo que se est[e diciendo. Saludos.

  -> Sí, "sacrificados" es un poco un eufemismo. Ya los mataderos o rastros más bien se llaman plantas de sacrificio o de procesamiento para quitarles la parte negativa implícita en matadero.

agree  Luis Rey Ballesteros (Luiroi): En el orden que mencionas. Para México la primera opción, sin duda. Saludos
