I read in another article that the zoo will "gently euthanize" your pet but I have had a vet come out to my farm and caution me about using any animal euthanized with drugs as feed for anything else due to possible bad reactions or side effects. So what is the definition of "gentle" when talking about non-drug euthanasia?
Don't these drugs have short half-life?
Short biological half life. It requires a working liver to detoxify.
I don't know. I was just told I can't donate the meat to a food program and I shouldn't eat it myself.
by food program do you mean it going to other humans? because i'd imagine the problem is just that we have WAY stricter standards for humans
Yes. Charitable food bank.
