People have stupid ideas about getting more blood out and in turn cause an animal more suffering. Too many times I have seen and heard the results of a slow painful death, that is unethical. Use a bullet and be done instantly, then slit throat to remove blood.

The way I was taught to slaughter rabbits was to hold them on the ground, place a heavy bar across the back of their necks, step on either end of the bar and then pull up on their back legs until you hear their neck crack. It seems to be quick and humane to me.

I don't have one but I can see from the videos on you tube that they are very effective. Personally, I have an iron fire poker that has a curled handle that works just like the wringer. First time every time. Quick and clean.
