Hidden camera: wider view of knockbox and kill room

Extended hidden camera footage showing a wider view of the knockbox for cows and large pigs, the kill room including the kill platform and shackle line for sheep, goats and pigs, and the scalding tank for pigs, at Steve's Country Kills slaughterhouse in Chinchilla, Queensland.

Animals in the knockbox are shot with a rifle as a method of 'stunning' them before cutting their throats.
