[QUOTE="ImLost, post: 7338950, member: 57170"] An alternative way of putting it I guess. However, I would hope all the animals on my farm wouldnt be in pain, and if they were I would either administer pain killers at the soonest available opportunity or if it is suffering that much, despatch it. I think the real difference between what you are saying about animals being in pain whilst on a farm and animals being slaughtered without stunning is we are choosing to put animals going to non stun slaughter through unnecessary suffering when the option to stun is there. To balance this out, I do obviously understand there is a gap in the market which requires non stun slaughter, and we would probably see the likes of stolen sheep cases rise if we weren't to offer it, with the sheep that are stolen going through a lot more distress than being processed professionally at a non stun abbatoir. It is a difficult subject with a lot of grey areas. [/QUOTE]
