Size and products of butchering

Strangely, larger creatures do not always translate into more meat at the butcher's shop. I've noticed dogs result in 13 meat, while the much larger donkeys result in only ten meat. I'm wondering if the size indicator results in a total number of parts, with random bits like hooves and intestines being subtracted from that and the extra bits being assigned as meat and fat.

Currently, killing dogs is more efficient for food production than killing donkeys.
