Cowra Meat Processors, Cowra NSW (campaign video - Instagram)

The 30th slaughterhouse to be investigated and exposed as part of Farm Transparency Project's "Shut Down Slaughterhouses" campaign. 

Hidden cameras installed by FTP in November 2024 reveal the aggressive use of electric prodders to move sheep, goats, cattle, pigs and young piglets; workers throwing, kicking, and smacking animals with metal tools; extremely poor and ineffective use of 'stunning' devices causing prolonged agony; animals being killed while conscious, some having escaped the restraint; a conscious pig drowning in a scalding tank; and the use of a carbon dioxide gas chamber for pigs, a system now notorious for its cruelty.
