Therefore it is correct that shoechtim be careful not to shecht<BR>

<DIV>I remember reading that Temple Grandin had designed a spiral ramp with
high walls for cattle to walk along before reaching the slaughtering
spot. The design was such that the animal could not see out the sides or
very far ahead as it walked, and would thus not witness other animals being
slaughtered. This was meant to keep the animal calm and not frightened. I
did not find the article with a quick google search but I am sure it's available
somewhere.</DIV>

<DIV>Temple Grandin is a famous expert in humane methods of animal
slaughter.</DIV>
