Inspection of pig trucks during cold weather

January 15, 2021

Eyes on Animals visited a big Dutch slaughterhouse to observe if drivers delivering the pigs took precautions to protect the pigs from the cold weather (1-2 degrees) today.  We observed several drivers that had left almost all of the side shutters of their truck open when they arrived.

For example electric tongs or captive bolt pistols are not positioned correctly on the head or the wrong cartridges are … [Read more...] about Visiting assembly centers to advise on the handling of sick and injured pigs
