Electrical Stunning<br />
Mainstrem Slaughter<br />
• Head-only stunning: An electric current is applied<br />
to the head which is supposed to cause temporary loss<br />
<strong>of</strong> consciousness.<br />
• Cardiac arrest stunning: An electric current is<br />
either sent through the head <strong>and</strong> body at the same<br />
time to span the brain <strong>and</strong> heart or is sent though the<br />
head first <strong>and</strong> then across the chest.<br />
• Waterbath stunning: Used for poultry. Birds are<br />
shackled upside down on a moving conveyor which<br />
carries them to an electrified water bath into which<br />
their heads are supposed to be immersed.
