It's done that way here as well. These people are living in the past.
Things have changed a lot in the past twenty years. (PETA). Now they even
kill the chickens BEFORE dunking them in the boiling water to remove the
feathers. Lobsters are still boiled alive.

You've never visited the killing floor at a slaughterhouse, I'm thinking.
It's pretty horrible. Do you remember Clarice's soliloquy about slaughtering
the lambs in "Silence of the Lambs"? That was an accurate portrayal. It's
not nice and could be done much more humanely but that would not be cost
effective.

Yep, here we use an air operated pistol with an attached bolt.
Place it between the eyes, pull the trigger and the bolt explodes the
brain then recoils back for the next beast.
Cheap efficient and fast.
