Another halal cattle slaughterhouse in Turkey is in favour of pre-stunning cattle before bleeding them out, so that the animal is rendered unconscious (insensitive to pain) before being hoisted and cut. Asalet from EonA was at this Turkish cattle slaughterhouse to train the workers and provide them with a captive bolt stunner last year. The manager had requested our help and showed us today how they use it. Normally cattle are hung up by a chain tied around one leg and live hoisted and then have their throats cut open. At least now some cattle slaughtered at this plant are being rendered insensitive to pain before all these painful and scary processes take place.
