The aim of this study was to examine stunning effectiveness of 200 pigs
with electric current in two slaughterhouses. During stunning it was assessed
whether electrodes were placed in the proper position on head, the incidence of
vocalisation during current application due to hot wanding, duration of current
application, the presence of tonic/clonic spasms and refl exes that indicated return
of consciousness, interval from stunning to slaughter and stunning effectiveness
at fi rst attempt. Proper placement of electrodes was observed in 17% of pigs in the
slaughterhouse A and in 45% of pigs in the slaughterhouse B. In the slaughterhouse
A 85% of pigs vocalized during current application, while a smaller percentage in
the slaughterhouse B (24%). Duration of current application in the slaughterhouse
A was 3,51±2,08 seconds and in the slaughterhouse B 11.48±5.69 seconds. The
interval from stunning to bleeding in slaughterhouse A was 2.44±0.94 seconds,
while in the slaughterhous...e B was longer (72.48±27.88 seconds). Return of
consciousness was observed in 89% of pigs in the slaughterhouse B and in 2%
of pigs in the slaughterhouse A. At fi rst attempt was successfully stunned more
pigs in slaughterhouse A (52%) than in slaughterhouse B (11%). Between all
observed parameters in slaughterhouse A and B was found statistically signifi cant
difference (p<0.01, p<0.001). The results of our study point out serious problems
with stunning procedure which are especially expressed in the slaughterhouse B
and the need of staff training in order to improve treatment and welfare of pigs.
