Fish suffering pain

Interesting studies on fish and the potential long duration of pain they might suffer - and the importance on how to kill them as painless as possible

Awful. A quick death is called for.

Best to slit their gills right away; then, a bonk on the head.

Back in my riding days, we once took a field trip to a trout farm (it was for dinner). The trout were killed by being smacked on the head, but of course some would still be moving while the guy degutted them. Painful to watch, but hard to say whether that was just a reflex or they were actually still alive.

Ugh. If I had to kill the animals I eat I would be a vegetarian. 100%.
