Paraguay is the seventh-largest exporter of beef in the world and supplies 40 percent of all the kosher beef eaten in Israel. drizzy hoodiesTeams of kosher slaughterers are sent from Israel to South America.  sleeping with sirens merch anthemWorkers restrained cows with a sharp tool called a “devil’s fork” and by hooking them by the nose. lapierre hoodieAfter workers wrenched the cows’ heads back, the slaughterer cut the throats of the completely conscious animals, causing their blood to spurt out. radford hoodiesAfter reviewing the footage, Dr. Grandin said, “The highly stressful cruel methods of restraint must be eliminated.”  dodger hoodie giveaway

Even after the cows’ throats were cut open, the worst was still to come. Many of the cows remained conscious and struggled and flailed as they were hoisted up in the air and moved down the processing line. rammstein hoodie ukHanging by one leg, these cows were still fully conscious while bleeding out, some for over two minutes. hoodie plural“These plants must also stop hanging fully conscious cattle on the rail.” —Dr. Temple Grandin But workers started cutting into them, even though they could still feel pain. Many cows like this one remained alive and fully conscious as a worker cut open their skin and drove a spike called a “puntilla” into their spines to paralyze them before other workers started to dismember them. “A puntilla was used to sever the spinal cord before dressing. This does NOT make the animal unconscious.

The head can remain conscious after the spine is severed.” —Dr. Temple GrandinPETA and Anonymous for Animal Rights also obtained whistleblower footage from slaughterhouses in Argentina and Uruguay and another large slaughterhouse in Paraguay, all of which use this archaic method. The following are some of the tools of this cruel trade: What Rabbis SayShockingly, representatives of the office of the chief rabbi of Israel previously defended the kosher status of “shackle and hoist” beef, reportedly declaring that “gratuitous cruelty” does not “disqualify the meat” as kosher. However, many other rabbis across the spectrum have spoken out against “shackle and hoist” slaughter, citing Jewish laws and principles, especially tsaar baalei chayim—not causing unnecessary harm to animals: “It is hard to reconcile the humane slaughter that kashrut is meant to represent with this barbaric practice.” —Rabbi Shmuly Yanklowitz, president and dean at Valley Beit Midrash “[T]he restraint methods used in South American kosher slaughter are the most crude and abusive in the commercial kosher slaughter industry.” —

Rabbi Adam Frank, Masorti Congregation Moreshet Yisrael “We have good evidence that shackling and hoisting animals while still conscious causes immense pain to the animals themselves. Especially since a much less painful alternative is available for kosher slaughter, shackling and hoisting them unquestionably constitutes a violation of Jewish laws that forbid us to cause undue pain to animals.” —Rabbis Elliot N. Dorff and Joel Roth, the Committee on Jewish Law and Standards of the Rabbinical AssemblyShekels, Lies, and VideotapeFollowing a series of previous PETA investigations into kosher slaughterhouses in Uruguay, the chief rabbi of Israel promised to phase out “shackle and hoist” slaughter and declare the meat to be “non-kosher”:But as this new video has exposed, these promises have not been kept. Sixty to 80 percent of the beef exported to Israel is still produced using “shackle and hoist” slaughter. So why does the Chief Rabbinate of Israel continue to certify such a primitive and cruel practice when there are other methods of kosher slaughter that use more modern equipment and cause less suffering?
