Extending the use of the non-penetrative captive bolt stunning method for additional categories of animalsfiled 7 Apr 2026source

Non-penetrative captive bolt method may be considered an effective method of stunning for piglets weighing less than 5 kg, but should not be used as a method of slaughter (dt.: Tötung). After stunning, death must be induced by exsanguination. The device must be used correctly, its size must be adjusted to the animal, and animal welfare requirements must be met.
