Duppie 73 Posted June 17, 2013 I watched them stab a Lobster through the head on Master Chef last week and you could see the life go out of it's eyes, it actually really bummed me out. For the rest of the night it put me in a weird mood, I actually had to go spend time with my dog after. Damn....then you wouldn't want to be in the kitchen when I'm processing live crabs and lobsters, unless I'm putting them on the grill or steaming whole, the lobsters get twisted and the crabs have their backs pulled off.

AlDente67 563 Posted June 17, 2013 On a related note, we've had chipmunks living in the yard for years, navigating to the bird feeders and back to their burrow while passing the pool on the way. This past week, I've had to fish out three dead ones from the shallow end. I guess they were looking for water and don't have a way to get back out. The odd thing is that never happened before and with all the rain we've gotten lately, why are they so parched I wonder. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You must do them like my buddy does then, cleans them while they're still alive. I couldn't do it myself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly...the bright pink fat and gills of either begin to grey within moments of their death which effects taste. I won't cook crabs or lobsters that have expired with the exception of gilled soft shell crabs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Urban Grunt 44 Posted June 17, 2013 I remember reading in NJ hunters ed about trappers finding live injured animals in traps and dispatching them with a firearm needing a rifle permit/license. Good bet same rules apply to any animal, this is NJ after all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mipafox 438 Posted June 17, 2013 This is the best advice I can give you, take it for what it's worth.....I am not a veterinarian. The American Veterinarian Society has Euthanasia guidelines... most of which use specialized equipment. The State Fish and Game Commission refer to these guidelines when instructing persons in terminating nuisance wildlife. Drowning is illegal. And Carbon Dioxide though it will kill the animal, exposing it to the super heated exhaust of an engine is inhumane. Veterinarians have pressurized canisters of gas to induce death in this manner. An acceptable procedure in the guidelines for small mammals (short of using a .22) is chest compression. If you would rather not do it by using your hands to directly compress the chest I think you could use whatever method that accomplishes the same action. You could accomplish the same thing by placing the animal on the ground and laying the end of a board across it and "slowly" push down on the board with your hand or step on the board with with your foot (don't stomp on it). Only use sufficient compression to the point that the animal cannot breath (don't squash it)... hold the compression for 1-2 minutes or until you are satisfied it is dead. It is usually very quick and not as gruesome as other methods. Can I have a link to this for my information? I want to see them talk about carbon dioxide and superheat in car exhaust. Both present (sort of), neither applicable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djg0770 481 Posted June 17, 2013 And Carbon Dioxide though it will kill the animal, exposing it to the super heated exhaust of an engine is inhumane. So much fail here it's just a miracle. Better watch out for that deadly dihydrogen monoxide as well. It's a real killer, especially in children! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mipafox 438 Posted June 17, 2013   IMO if an animal is already suffering... any procedure that you could perform that would be expedient would be the best course of action. _____________________________________________________________________   In reference to my earlier statement I meant to say, Carbon Monoxide not Carbon Dioxide. Here's a link to the AVMA 2013 guidelines pdf https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/292011 . Thanks, I see it.   Page 48 under General Recommendations:   "(8) Carbon monoxide must be supplied in a precisely regulated and purified form without contaminants or adulterants, typically from a commercially supplied cylinder or tank. Yeah, don't want any contaminants. It's like when they swab your skin before the give you the lethal injection LOL (I have read another source that describes combustible gases as being inhumane because of being super heated... I will try and find it but it's been a few years and I don't know where it came from. Suffice to say it is still not acceptable either way.)Carbon monoxide is a flammable gas. Not sure how superheat applies to gasses, or anything with a fugacity near 1. If there are superheated gasses, then it includes the air I am breathing right now. To make things way more complicated than they need to be, I used the disclaimer that car exhaust contains superheat "sort of" only because there is water vapor with energy beyond latent heat. Not because it means anything at all, just because I am accustomed to defending myself from all kinds of moronic challenges. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
