This immobilizes the animal and sometimes will lead to the animal's death if not slaughtered immediately after the stunning. While some argue that this is a more humane way to kill animals, others argue that it causes extra pain and doesn't fall in line with halal rules for slaughter.
Some halal ranches practice stunning, while others do not. Regardless of your personal opinions about halal meat, the fact is it's spreading.
