Reply #8: Wouldn't it be less dangerous with anasthesia? [View All]

Some of the sedatives my professor uses when he darts white tailed deer have an average induction time of like 8-15 minutes-- but the animal is easier to handle sedated than if my professor tries to radio collar a deer using a clover trap.

Personally, I think many of the safety issues that come from these issues are because factory farms are by nature inhumane. There are humane ways to kill animals for food, and from what I've read, factory farms are very inhospital to moving towards standardize humane killing procedures.
