There is no need to ship live anymore. We have refrigeration and fast transportation.
As to how an animal is slaughtered, the only thing that should matter is cruelty free and humane. All other issues are not important.
The people who are willing to work in animal slaughter are not the kind and humane types. You wouldn't do it and I wouldn't do it. I think we have a basic problem. Slaughter in the middle east is particularly brutal and that must stop. However slaughter in so called civilized countries is not good either because the people willing to do it are not governed by gentleness and compassion. How can we make this better?
