I used an "animals saved" calculator and entered someone 75 years ripened and it calculated that they would have save:
10.306 cows
2262.4 chickens
25.138 pigs
75.415 turkeys
6.0332 ducks
4273.5 fish
Total: 6652.9 animals

That's equivalent to nearly 9.6 cows (that would be assuming that they weighed almost 500 lbs each. Getting 450 lbs of meat per cow...
