Spirit of Humane are family farmers who raise sheep and goats in Northwest Wisconsin. They worked with animal welfare experts to develop a restraint system for the religious slaughter of livestock. The restraint system complies with Halal and Kosher standards and exceeds the requirements of the Humane Slaughter Act.Spirit of Humane markets a suitable knife for humane sheep and goat slaughter and a mobile slaughter unit. The slaughter unit is built to USDA standards. It is designed for small-scale custom and low volume state and federally inspected facilities.
Partial funding of the Spirit of Humane process was provided by a North Central Region SARE Producer Grant, a Wisconsin Added Value Producer grant, and the Browse & Grass Farmer Association.
The Northeast Sheep & Goat Marketing Program was also instrumental in the development of these slaughter tools.
