Humane
slaughter
proposed
WASHINGTON, D.C.
The U.S. Department
of Agriculture proposes
to allow meat and
poultry slaughter plants
to use a new humane
slaughter method that
employs electrical
devices to cause instant
cardiac arrest in
animals.
“Scientific evidence
indicates that this is a
humane method of
slaughter that results in
meat of good quality,
comparable to meat
from animals
slaughtered by
traditional methods,”
said Donald L. Houston,
administrator of
USDA’s Food Safety
and Inspection Service.
The proposed method
would apply increased
voltage to instantly stop
the heart and thus stop
blood circulation to the
bram killing rather
than merely stunning
the animal. The animal
then would be bled.
This method, also
called “deep stunning”
or “electrical
slaughter,” has been
used effectively in other
countries, according to
Houston, and some
researchers believe it
may be the best
slaughter method.
While USDA does not
believe there is enough
data to justify man
dating this slaughter
method, the agency
would monitor its use to
determine whether this
might be appropriate at
a later date.
Comments on the
proposal will be ac
cepted through Aug. 27.
They should be iden
tified as responses to
Docket 82-021 and sent,
in duplicate, to FSIS
Hearing Clerk, USDA,
Room 2637-S,
Washington, D.C. 20250.
USDA’s Food Safety
and Inspection Service

assuring that meat and

humanely in inspected
plants.
