Several places on the internet seem to purport that animal sacrifice is painless because exsanguination causes no pain. That sounds unscientific to me and an attempt to appease culture than than using science. For instance this question on the se and others like it on the internet. Is there a difference between pig and cow anatomy that makes religious slaughter of the latter less painful?
Could someone comment on the validity of this research?
