Slaughterhouses do occasionally reclaim their lost property, says Dobnik, but returning animals are "rare" (8). Why would that likely be the case?

Slaughterhouses are used for meat production, otherwise known as butchery.

Explanation:

Returning an animal to a previous owner is unlikely given the purpose of slaughterhouses. Those who work in slaughterhouses make their living from butchering animals, which they typically pay money for. Returning an animal would be losing profits, both from the initial investment and the future retail.
