How do they slaughter ducks?

On the live-hang line, ducks are dragged head-first through an electrified water bath, then proceed to an automated blade that slits their throats. If the birds were not stunned by the water bath, as is often the case, they frequently miss the blade because they are frantically flapping in pain and terror.
