Cape Coast Campus slaughterhouse now renders animals unconscious before slaughter, Ghana

October 16, 2017

More improvements in Ghana to report on : after the UDS slaughterhouse in Tamale now the Cape Coast Campus slaughterhouse is using the captive bolts we gave them to stun the animals (cattle, shee, goats and pigs) before slaughter. We know slaughter is never a pretty site but imagine what it looks like when animals are left fully conscious while having their throats slit. We cannot stop animal slaughter today but we can decrease animal suffering. We are so relieved and proud of this big difference we managed to achieve together with WACPAW.

De Afdeling advisering v/d Raad van State is zeer kritisch over de manier waarop de Minister poogt alternatieve invulling te geven aan het Amendement Vestering (@LeonieVestering ) bij de Wet dieren. E.e.a. is zowel inhoudelijk als procedureel discutabel, aldus de RvS. 1/6

😳🐓 Dit zegt een man tegen de kip die hij gaat slachten in Volkskrant Magazine: “Bedankt dat we je mogen eten.” Wij zijn benieuwd of de kip in kwestie dit zal beamen….. #slacht
