  thats crazy, i had no idea that would be considered animal cruelty. i grew up on a farm and have only ever seen the head chopped off but out of curioity, how is severing the spinal cord with an axe more inhumane than twisting the neck? logically speaking, the blood draining out has  no effect on cognition, and what if theneck doesnt snap the first time?

    Honestly decapitation is more humane than a broken neck. The drop in BP is enough to cause immediate lights out, where as someone with a broken neck could very well have to suffocate to death inside their own bodies.

    The blood pressure drop has a huge effect on cognition.

    I think they mean the guy slit the birds neck and then let it drain, instead of fully beheading it.

    Yeah, I think decapitation is fine. I think this guy just cut their carotid, and hung them up to die.

    Not a great way to go, honestly.

    I’m familiar with some butchering methods, but I’m no butcher. I think that the most common practices in large butcher shops involve either decapitation, or a way of instantly killing the animal. Pretty sure they use a type of bolt “gun” for bovines that basically crushes their skull.

    It seems like it is brutal, but their death is so instant, it is considered to be humane.

  Literally every single halal certified carcass was joined like this.

  Hanging the bird upside down, cutting its neck (specifically, the arteries that are in the neck) and letting it bleed out is standard practice. The blood drains quickly and they die within a few seconds. It sounds horrible if you haven’t seen it done but this is how many (most?) farmers do it.

    I’ve seen aunties grab a chicken by the neck and just spin it around till the head comes off.

    It sounds to me like the guy told the neighbor “stop feeding my birds, I’m going to slaughter them soon”, and the neighbors who had been feeding the birds without permission reported them?

    Anyways. Peacocks are annoying as hell. Preposterously loud.

      Peacocks are annoying as hell. Preposterously loud.

      One of my neighbors have Peacocks. The rest have dogs. I’ll take Peacocks any day!

      It’s kind of adorable hearing them yell at cars driving by too fast/loud.

        The peacocks I’ve seen are so loud they can be heard at the top of a 25 story condo. I’ve literally seen people sell their condos because of the damn peacocks. Maybe they only have peahens?

  Ah, so standard Halal practice, which is savage animal cruelty with a devoted PR department.

    It’s ok as long as enough other people share the same delusion.

    Yet, If I tell them the voices in my head told me to watch the light drain from my prey’s eyes as it dies before I eat…

  Pretty sure halal and kosher meat requires that the animals bleed out.

  I think of the method this guy used as “The Sarah Palin method” because she once did a news interview while people were killing turkeys in the background that way.
