Slaughter/euthanasia of stock 5

Where an animal has become so sick, diseased or injured that recovery is unlikely or undesirable on humane grounds, euthanasia must be arranged with a local veterinarian.

Students are permitted to watch a post-mortem of an animal provided there is no disease risk posed.

Disposal

Birds may be sold privately or passed onto appropriate homes. If breeding results in surplus animals, these animals must not be killed as a method of disposal.

Carcasses must be disposed of in accordance with local council regulations.
