3.If only refrigerated, it will stay consumable for FEW DAYS AT THE MOST.
4.Stunning results in an increase in the weight of the bird of about 10% of its total weight. This increase does not benefit the consumer because it is clotted blood in the veins and arteries. Cost to consumers may increase by 10% when birds are stunned without any true gain for him.
5.Due to the abundance of bacteria in the blood vessels, the poultry will be less tasteful. Second: ELECTRIC STUNNING SEVERELY HURTS THE ANIMAL because it causes an immediate nerve shock which causes the bird intense pain. THIS, in effect, IS AN EXTREME TORTURING for this powerless bird. “THOSE WHO STUN POULTRY HAVE NO MERCY IN THEIR HEARTS FOR ANIMALS.” Third: Most slaughtering firms who practice stunning in slaughtering poultry make their profits from increase of the weight of blood remaining in their blood vessels.STUNNING IS DONE NOT OUT OF MERCY BUT FOR FINANCIAL GAINS. WHAT IS THE PERCENTAGE OF POULTRY WHICH DIE BY STUNNING BEFORE THEY ARE SLAUGHTERED?
The percentage is not fixed, but ranges between 10% to 35 % (24% in UK, it is reported by MAFF) and sometimes HIGHER than that. This ratio depends on two things:
1. The level of electric voltage used in electrifying the water in which the bird is stunned.
2. The level of the bird’s resistance to electric current in oil. Usually this is very small.
