Improvements in Ghanaian pig slaughterhouses

July 1, 2018

Our efforts from last October are paying off ! Last fall we trained over 150 Ghanaian slaughterhouse workers and agricultural students on what steps can be taken to reduce animal-suffering during slaughter. This training was done in the classroom but also directly in several slaughterhouses there. Please take a look at this short video to see what we achieved at two pig slaughterhouses so far.

We know that we cannot spare farm animals from slaughter, the world is not yet a vegan paradise…but we will remain committed to working inside slaughterhouses, places where most people turn away, to reduce as much suffering as possible.

📌👎🐓 Dus hier in het filmpje is te zien, dat de kippen aan hun poten worden gevangen, stuk of drie in elke hand, ondersteboven aan hun poten uit de stal gehaald en zo naar de plek gebracht waar ze vergast worden. Wat een wrede methode! Dat kan toch anders! #vogelgriep #pluimvee

Ook de @dierencoalitie wilde graag namens de dieren in gesprek met @JohanRemkes
Maar u raadt het al, dit verzoek werd niet gehonoreerd. #stikstof #vee #dierenwelzijn #stemvoordieren
