Temple Grandin Helps U.S. Chicken Companies Switch To Gas Killing
Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, October 22nd, 2010 in Animal Issues, Business, Food & Drink.
Temple Grandin, a scientist who’s contributed to reducing stress on slaughter animals, has consulted with two U.S chicken companies who worked with a business, Anglia Autoflow, that designed a system to allow them to kill chickens using carbon dioxide, considered a more humane alternative to electrical stunning used by most American chicken producers.
Bell & Evans in Pennsylvania and Mary’s Chickens in California are making the switch to putting chickens to sleep using the gas before they are turned upside down to have their throats slit and will have the first such chickens slaughtered available for purchase in April and June, respectively.
