Guns & Slaughter

Article in spiedel.de about german farmers who are shooting their cattle at the farm prior to transport to the slaugtherhouse.  The basic idea is that the cow is killed and has less stress than the usual load on the truck and transport to the slaughterhouse and then the stress of the slaughterhouse.  Interesting take on quality of life for food animals.
