食用动物是怎样被宰杀的?
在澳大利亚,为了食物、皮毛或其他动物产品而进行的宰杀是严格按照《澳大利亚人类食用肉类生产和运输卫生标准》执行的。这个标准是为了确保食物安全,也包含动物福利的内容。与动物福利相关的关键点是:
“损伤、痛苦最小化,以及对动物的最低限度干扰。”
在抵达屠宰场之前(通常是前一天),动物们被给与水、遮荫、食物。有伤病的动物会被分离开来,给与治疗或安乐死。
屠宰前24小时,动物们要经过肉类安全检查员的检查,确保它们是健康的,它们的肉适合人类食用。
屠宰之前,动物们走上一条道,进入一个晕眩箱。这个箱子把动物与其它动物分隔来开。进入箱子后几秒钟之内,一个操作员会让动物晕眩。对于羊和猪,使用电晕。对于牛,使用螺栓。两种器械都是瞄准动物的大脑。对于猪,也可以使用二氧化碳。这个弄晕的过程确保动物在被放血之前没有意识,没有痛觉。
一旦动物被击晕,它的一条后腿就会被铐起,几秒钟之内,大血管就被切断放血。因为动物被击晕了,在被铐和被放血过程中没有意识,也不会有痛感。动物在失血而死之前不会重新清醒。
宰杀之后,肉类安全检查员会检查尸体,确定是否适合人类食用,或者最好作为宠物食品、药用材料或丢弃。
在动物被击晕后两个小时内,尸体会被放入冰库冷藏或冷冻。

这都是误传,和微信一样。。。 都说这里的猪肉不放血骚, 其实猪肉骚的原因是因为阉猪和大粪素的原因。 只要买free range猪肉 你就会发现, 这肉比国内的肉香。
以前我也不懂, 和一个开肉店的华人老板聊天后就明白了。。 华人店为什么肉比较不臊, 因为华人店一半进肉的时候尽量进母猪, free range的是香但是太贵,所以不进。
猪肉, 臊的因素, 阉猪, 饲料以及过于拥挤的笼养太脏--大粪素。
品质 free range或者小猪--香〉 母猪肉(不骚)〉不知道哪买的肉(大猪肉特骚)

原文:
How are animals killed for food?
In Australia, the killing of animals for food, fibre and other animal products (referred to as ‘slaughter’) is underpinned by the Australian standard for the hygienic production and transport of meat and meat products for human consumption. As the title suggests, the main objective of the standard is to ensure food safety, however, it also includes an animal welfare component. The key outcome of the animal welfare-related standards is
“The minimisation of the risk of injury, pain and suffering and the least practical disturbance to the animals.”
Upon arrival at the abattoir (either the day before or on the day of slaughter), animals are provided with water, shade, shelter and feed as appropriate. Sick or injured animals are segregated and given appropriate treatment or humanely euthanased.
Within 24 hours before slaughter, animals are checked by a meat safety inspector to ensure they are healthy and their meat therefore likely to be suitable for human consumption.
Just prior to slaughter, animals are walked up a raceway into the abattoir where they enter the stunning box. This box separates the animal off from the rest of the animals in the raceway. Within seconds of entering this box, an operator stuns the animal. With sheep or pigs, this may be an electrical stun. With cattle, this may be a captive bolt. Both devices are aimed at the brain. Pigs may also be stunned using carbon dioxide. This stunning process ensures the animal is unconscious and insensible to pain before being bled out.
As soon as the animal is stunned, it is shackled by a hind leg and then, within seconds, the large blood vessels are severed to induce bleeding (a process known as ‘sticking’). Because the animal has been stunned, it is unconscious and does not feel or experience the shackling or sticking process. The animal does not regain consciousness or sensibility before dying due to loss of blood.
After slaughter, the meat safety inspector examines the carcass to determine whether it is suitable for human consumption or whether the carcass is best used for pet food, pharmaceutical material or should be condemned.
Within two hours of the animal being stunned, the carcass is placed in a refrigerator for chilling or freezing. The process of slaughtering and further processing is designed to either destroy pathogens or prevent pathogenic growth and produce meat that is safe for human consumption.
