[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 9276150, member: 2119"] The grandparents recalled the pig going a fair distance round the yard with blood gushing out after he’d been stuck. They said it was horrific and the job of a specialist pig sticker man who was also the hedge plasher in this district. When I was in France in the ‘90’s they’d bang the pigs head with a mallet which I’d say distracted it more than stunned it then cut its throat and caught the blood in a pan to make puddings. I’d fully agree all animals should be stunned before slaughter. There’s just no need to prolong the agony or cause more suffering than necessary. Any animals we had home killed here during my lifetime were stunned and seemed to be out of it immediately. That’s surely the right way. It really annoys me that ridiculous religious requirements can usurp plain logic in many aspects of life. Even the moving date of Easter is fairly stupid, messing up the academic term lengths and holiday plans. Why not fix it on the First Sunday of April every year so everybody knows where they stand?
