Humane Handling and Slaughter Enforcement Activities | Report to Congress
Originally the Agency had a system for tracking humane handling violations. Each district office collected the humane handling data and was capable of supplying it when requested by Headquarters in Washington, D.C. In many cases the data was collected on an ad hoc basis as a means of informally evaluating the Agency’s progress on humane handling and slaughter enforcement activities. During the 1990s when the Agency implemented Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point—system (HACCP), the Performance Based Inspection System (PBIS) was reformatted and “humane handling” violations were denoted in the column not specifically designed to catch humane handling violations, but all establishment violations that were non-HACCP related. This change made it impossible to separate violations of the HMSA from other violations. ... [Read More]
Information Resources for Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees 1985-1999
Abstract: A series of studies was undertaken to determine whether CO 2 can be used as a humane as well as practical agent for euthanasia or anesthesia of rats. Human volunteers rated the degree of discomfort associated with breathing 50 to 100% CO 2 mixed with oxygen. Increasing concentrations of CO 2 were judged as progressively more noxious, from "highly unpleasant" for 50% CO 2 to "painful" for 100% CO 2 . The practical aspects of anesthesia and euthanasia with 50 to 100% CO 2 were studied, using male Sprague Dawley rats. Time to anesthesia and death were inversely related to CO 2 concentration, as were the frequency and severity of adverse reactions, including seizures and hemorrhaging from the nose. The severity of edema and hemorrhage, which were observed on histologic examination of the lungs of all rats euthanized with CO 2 , were greatest in the animals exposed to the lowest concentrations. There were no significant effects of CO 2 concentration on time to recumbency o ... [Read More]
The Minnesota Restorative Justice Initiative
As a society, we have been caught in thinking errors similar to thoseof the typical offender. Offenders will frequently assert that they hadno choice, they had to steal something because they needed it, or theyhad to hit someone because that person had offended them. Offenders oftenhave difficulty identifying other behavioral options. ... As a society, we have been thinking that the only choice we have inresponding to crime is to get meaner and meaner until we frighten peopleinto behaving as we wish. But that is not the only choice we have for managingbehavior, and fear is not the most powerful motivator. ... [Read More]
