Re: Does anyone here work in or know anyone who works in..........

Willow, my Daughter used to work in a meat processing company that had an abbattoir attached...she was originally enlisted to supervise the kills, but took on the Quality control instead.
I am almost sure that she said the animals were killed by bolts(after they had been stunned)....and that it was vital for the animals to be kept calm before they were killed...otherwise the meat would be tough.
I know that all the kills are supervised by a vet.
