A typical slaughterhouse kills up to 1100 pigs every hour, which makes it impossible for them to be given humane, painless deaths. The U.S. department of agriculture documated 14 humane slaughter violations at one procesing plant, where inspectors found hogs who "were walking and squealing after being stunned with a stun gun as many as 4 times." Because of improper stunning methods and extremely fast line speeds, many pigs are still alive when they are dumped into scalding hot hair-removal tanks -- they literally drown in scalding hot-water.
Pork ribs anyone?
