1 Updates on swine euthanasia, concern reporting & ISU research Suzanne Millman, PhD Associate Professor, Animal Welfare Veterinary Diagnostic & Production Animal Medicine Biomedical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, Iowa State University
2 Setting the standards for euthanasia AVMA Panel on Euthanasia good death Painless Does not involve fear or distress Other practical considerations: Worker safety Aesthetics, acceptability Technical skills, reliability Cost, including carcass disposal Dr. Jan Shearer, euthanasia Training workshop ISU 2009

4 Validation of captive bolt technology as a single step euthanasia method for swine Millman S, Woods J, Hill J, Schwartz K, Brooks R, Main R, Grandin T

6 Evaluation of captive bolt as killing method for on-farm euthanasia anesthetized pigs Brain trauma scores were consistent with instantaneous loss of consciousness Secondary step (exsanguination) was necessary for 4 pigs Non-penetrating head was too powerful Woods, J, Hill, J., Millman, S.T., Schwartz, K., Grandin, T., Main, R., NPB project
7 Live animal trials 7 weight classes of pig Suckler, Weaner, Nursery, Grower, Market, Breeding (gilts/young boars), Mature (>500lbs) Non-penetrating head used for sucklers and weaners. 3 bolt lengths and different cartridges were used for captive bolt pistol for 5 larger weights 10 pigs were euthanized by each stockperson 3 stockpeople for each weight class (30 pigs) Total 210 pigs Millman, S.T., Woods, J, Hill, J., Schwartz, K., Brooks, R, NPB project
8 Results 8/210 pigs (3.8%) required a second shot 5 mature boars, weight classes 6&7 (17%) 4 were euthanized by same stockperson, faulty placement Stockman most often performing task had 100% success snared all boars 2 mature sows, weight classes 6&7 (7%) Both euthanized by same stockperson, faulty placement due to sow movement, not flush with head 1 suckler (faulty cartridge)
9 Median latency to cease movement (minutes) Weight Minimum Maximum suckler 1:10 4:24 weaner 1:06 5:35 nursery 1:08 2:46 grower 1:05 6:52 market 1:08 8:45 breeding 1:53 10:40
10 Median latency to death no pulse detected (minutes) Weight Minimum Maximum suckler 2:12 6:50 weaner 1:54 8:21 nursery 1:31 6:47 grower 1:20 5:40 market 1:18 4:50 breeding 3:07 10:36
11 Take home messages Our research results indicate that captive bolt was an effective single stage euthanasia method for 5 of the weight classes of pig Mature sows and boars remain the most difficult class for mechanical euthanasia. Placement and angle is important. Snaring was associated with greater success Individual differences betweens stockpeople likely due to experience/practice
12 Non-penetrating Captive Bolt The Zephyr Developed and approved by Ontario Ministry of Agriculture for stunning rabbits in abattoirs Similar to device approved for euthanasia of poultry in the UK Pneumatic nailer gun redesigned and fitted with a nylon head and powered by a portable air compressor set to 120 PSI
13 Modified Zephyr project Teresa Casey, MS student, PI: Dr. Tina Widowski, UoGuelph Effectiveness of the modified Zephyr on neonatal piglets (<72 hrs) Jan-February 2010, 100 piglets completed Arkell Research Station- Guelph 20 piglets 2 stock people Iowa State University- Ames, IA Elite Pork Products 80 piglets 8 stock people Effectiveness of non-penetrating captive bolt (Zephyr) and restraint for euthanasia of piglets from birth to 9 kg. Widowski, Millman, Lawliss. National Pork Board project
14 Time (s) 700 Stock Person Averages End Leg Movements End Heart Beat Figure 1 1. Stock 2person averages Mean (± SEM) duration of leg movements Stock and Person heart ID beat were calculated for each group of 10 piglets euthanized by an individual stock person. Ten stock people were compared. Time was recorded in seconds starting at the firing of the first shot of the Zephyr.
15 Questionnaire All 10 stock people completed individual questionnaire after euthanizing 10 piglets with Zephyr Assess background in swine industry and euthanasia experience Determine individual opinions of Zephyr effectiveness Ten point scale 1=ineffective : 10= highly effective Average rating: 8.7 ± 1.6
16 Evaluation of rate of administration of CO 2 and a CO 2 :Argon gas mixture for euthanasia of suckling and nursery piglets Sadler, L., Hagen, C., Wang, C., & Millman S. National Pork Board Project #09-197

18 Minutes Age effects on latency to loss of posture (P<0.001) % CO 2 Slow Medium Fast Prefill Weaned Neonate 18
19 Take home messages The addition of Argon at 50% of gas volume slowed response times, without decreasing incidence of irritation or distress Argon at different concentrations (lower CO 2 concentrations) may result in less distress 100% CO 50% of chamber volume per minute is our current recommendation Pre-fill works just as well or slightly better Distress is still observed When utilizing CO 2 or 50:50 CO 2 :Argon, neonate piglets succumbed to the gases faster than weaned piglets 19
20 Future directions in euthanasia research at ISU Mechanical methods Restraint of piglets needed for caretaker safety Gas methods (USDA AFRI grants) Why do some piglets appear resistant to gas euthanasia techniques? Can we find a gas or gas mixture that is not aversive to piglets? What euthanasia technologies are preferred by caretakers performing the task and by the

25 Weight / hoof, kg Weight / hoof, kg Weight / hoof, kg Weight / hoof, kg Sows were injected in the distal interphangeal joint space with 10mg amphotericin B Weight placed on the injected hoof went down compared to baseline and resolution (P < 0.05)
26 Findings Preliminary results indicate that the embedded force plate is sensitive enough to detect weight bearing differences between treated and untreated hooves in the sow Thus, work presented today has begun to address behavioral kinematics whilst walking and standing when sows are experiencing differing levels of lameness pain
