Innovative e-learning training modules to improve animal welfare during Transport and slaughter of pigs:
a pretest–posttest study to pre-evaluate the general didactical concept (2025)
Slaughter animals are transported, lairaged and stunned before slaughter. The welfare of animals can be compromised during this period. It is expected that all animals be protected from avoidable sources of disturbance, pain, or suffering during transport, lairage, restraint, stunning, slaughter, or killing. Slaughter animals include horses, ruminants, pigs, poultry, and species of fish. The different aspects involved in handling these animals are described in
each chapter.
