LE SHOCK ELECTRIQUE NE L' A PAS ETOURDIE, NI INSENSIBILISEE, CE QUI ARRIVE REGULIEREMENT. ELLE DEVRA DONC RECEVOIR UNE BALLE DANS LA TETE
The reporter goes on to explain how the cow’s mooing is a result of her
smelling the blood and knowing what’s coming. He also describes how two
cows didn’t initially go “lights out” with the first electrical stun,
something that happens on average to two cows per day. Per the USDA
guidelines, such failure to kill the animal “will be painful for the
animal. It will feel a large electric shock or heart attack signs, even
though it may be paralyzed and unable to move.” In that case, the cows
then had to be shot with a 9 mm to die. To humans an execution style
shot to a victim’s head would be considered a violent crime. To the
farmed animals it is humane.
It’s no surprise that the meat industry has secrets. From the way the animals are treated to where the final product actually comes from, slaughterhouses aren’t exactly transparent. Then there’s humane meat, the meat industry’s more socially accepted sister, but despite its reputation, this one too has a few skeletons in its closet.
Author Barry Estabrook recently uncovered the pork industry’s secrets in his latest book “Pig Tales: An Omnivore’s Quest for Sustainable Meat,” and it was at one his talks about the book that I found humane meat’s secrets.
Estabrooke told the audience at the University of South Florida about
his quest to find how bacon was produced. He visited a farm in Iowa
whose owner boasted about doing everything by the book, with impeccable
“bio security” and effective slaughter. What he saw was shocking.
“These pigs live in absolute filth,” he told of how the animals were
crammed into a barn with little to no space to move leaving them to step
and live on their own excrements. “They’re kept alive by gigantic fans
and there’s so much ammonia and sulfate in the air that if something
happens to those fans they die in a matter or hours.”
According to Estabrook, 100 million pigs are raised roughly every
year in the U.S., 97 percent of them in similar conditions in factory
farms. After seeing that sight, in his words, “it wasn’t looking good
for me and bacon,” but then he went to a humane farm.
The Niman Ranch,
he explained, raised their pigs on pasture, the animals never see an
antibiotic and, as he showed in a slideshow, they get to frolic in the
grass, take in the sun and live a wonderful life. His conclusion then
was simple:
