Animal slaughter is when people take an animal, like a pig or a cow, and kill it so we can use its meat for food. It's important to make sure the animal isn't hurt or scared while this happens, so we use special tools and techniques to do it carefully. After the animal is killed, we clean it and cut it up into different pieces that we can cook and eat. It might seem sad, but we have been doing this for a very long time so we can have food to eat and be healthy.
