I have had a different experience. The old saying "like lambs being led to the slaughter" is true. You can line them up and even though the are watching the sheep in front of them being killed and butchered they have no adverse reaction. When you slice the throat: If you use a very sharp knife and slice deep to cut completely through the juggulars they lay down and the blood flows out while they calmly pass away. If you don't cut deep so that the blood doesn't flow fast, they don't like it. They struggle and wiggle. Another interesting thing. If you tie their hooves and lay them down they are passive waiting for and during the procedure...unless any part of their body is touching a dead sheep next to them. They hate that and will kick and struggle. If you move them one inch so that they are no longer touching they are fine. If the sheep is alive it doesn't bother them...and it can just be their wool that is touching. How they can tell if the sheep is alive or dead, I don't know. Not that this has anything to do with Berg.
