Game Meats Company Abattoir
An export-accreduted, multi-species slaughterhouse in Eurobin, north-eastern Victoria. Hidden camera footage published by Farm Transparency Project in early 2024 reveals the brutal stunning and slaughter of hundreds of goats. Animals in the footage are seen jumping free of the restraint used to immobilise them before stunning and escaping into the kill room, where other goats are having their throats slit. Several goats show clear signs of consciousness, including blinking, lifting their heads and crying out, even while their throats are being slit and their heads and hooves removed.
Also captured is the slaughter of newborn goats, who are painfully electrocuted after being left in a plastic bucket for hours. One baby goat is captured crying out in pain for over two hours after an unsuccessful stunning attempt left them partially paralysed.
The slaughterhouse also sporadically kills deer, and has in the past killed emus and ostriches.
UPDATE 17/5/2024: The footage of animal cruelty captured at the Game Meats Company abattoir in Eurobin, Victoria, has been temporarily removed to comply with an order by the Federal Court of Australia. The slaughterhouse has been granted a temporary injunction by the court to block the publication of the damning footage.
