May 10, 2022

Since our first visit in 2018, Pali has put several of our recommendations into practice. At Pali, pigs are stunned with electricity. They are moved in small groups towards a single file which they have to enter one after the other.

More stunners arrive in Ghana

April 22, 2022

Today our package arrived in Ghana. We sent many stunners, cartridges and proper knives to West Africa Center for the Protection of Animal Welfare for them to continue to train butchers how to render animals unconscious before cutting their throat, and to put an end to animals being butchered while fully conscious with blunt knives. We know it is still slaughter, but if we … [Read more...] about More stunners arrive in Ghana
