The body will still kick and move around like that.

The circuit for walking is actually in the center of the spine and that circuit kind of goes crazy when you cut the head off, so the kicking will continue until the muscles run out of oxygen.

There's one [lamb] that might be a bit questionable.

That's something I'd have to go up and check it really carefully, which I can't do on the video.

If it was [conscious], the correct thing to do is take a handheld captive bolt and shoot it.

Taking that downer weak sheep and trying to get it to walk up the chute, it probably was really too weak to ask it to do that.

They need some training on how to handle compromised animals.

We also need to work on reducing the number of compromised animals sent to the plant.

That has to be done out at the feed yard.

Dont load them.

Heres a guy that, like, picked the sheep up and handled it roughly.

That was not good handling.

That was rough handling.

That wasn't a good way that he handled that sheep.

Im seeing some things they could kind of fine tune and correct, maybe some more employee supervision and training.

Their handling with the Judas sheep was absolutely fine.

You take the Judas halfway up the ramp, it starts to come out and then the other sheep just follow it.

That makes the handling of the sheep really easy for the unloading.

You know Judas sheep are used and I recommend using them.

They call it “betrayal,” I just call it good handling.

They don't like the idea of a Judas lamb.

OK, but that's a philosophical concern.

It's not a welfare concern.

Those Judas lambs that live at those plants are very well treated.
