Animal-welfare training at Kojo Krom slaughterhouse in Kumasi, Ghana

April 15, 2021

With the help of Eyes on Animals training and stunning material and a donation from Varkens in Nood, our colleagues at WACPAW (West Africa Center for the Protection of Animal Welfare) gave a 2-day training course in how to stun pigs to the slaughtermen of Kojo Krom slaughterhouse in Kumasi. Eyes on Animals and WACPAW work together to try and put an end to the slaughter of conscious animals in Ghana, teaching the slaughterers working in abattoirs how to stun animals and leasing out captive bolt pistols (stunners) to them, so that animals are at least rendered insensitive to pain when their throats are cut to be bleed out. Slaughterhouses in Ghana, like most slaughterhouses in 3rd and 2nd world countries, do not have stunning equipment and most animals continue to be slaughtered while fully conscious.

Rencontre. Si nous regardions les autres animaux avec nos yeux d'enfant, nous nous rappellerions quels êtres sensibles et uniques ils sont. ❤️

De Waal:”De moeder-kind band is tweehonderd miljoen jaren oud, die is op dezelfde manier geprogrammeerd bij de mens als bij de koe als bij allerlei andere zoogdieren.Dus het zou heel vreemd zijn dat een mens heel overstuur is als een kind weggenomen wordt en de koe níet!” #kalf

Hoe kan het dat ik zoveel van #dieren houd en ze ook opeet? Waarom eet ik geen paarden- of hondenvlees, maar wel kipfilet of een karbonaadje? Imke de Boer, hoogleraar aan de @WUR, schreef over deze vragen een boek. Ze vertelt erover in de studio @NPORadio1
