Slaughter facilities are typical of a modern beef slaughter
facility,with cattle moving from lairage pens onto a v-belt restrainer
that moved the cattle to the bleeding gate. All cattle were held in an upright
position and the head restrained by a hydraulic device that presented
the throat to the trained rabbi for bleeding. A single rabbi
performed all of the bleeding, and all animal were presented for
“Glatt” kosher slaughter.
