Sažetak
The mobile slaughterhouse has long been a well-known system for the slaughter of animals in the European Union (EU) and worldwide. However, it is not yet in use as an established form of animal slaughter in the EU, but it has the potential to be. Primarily because it eliminates the need to transport live animals to the slaughterhouse. Animal transport is very stressful for the animals, so slaughtering them in their familiar environment makes an important contribution to a higher level of animal welfare and consequently better meat quality. However, when using a mobile slaughterhouse, all general requirements for slaughtering animals, as well as hygienic and sanitary conditions, must be met. The main purpose of the mobile slaughterhouse was to ensure the slaughter of animals in remote areas from which transporting the animals to a stationary slaughterhouse would be time-consuming and difficult. Also, in some countries, large slaughterhouses are not interested in slaughtering a small number of animals from small farms, especially in cases where the meat of the slaughtered animal is returned to the same farm. Given the development of infrastructure in the European region, the latter possibility is relatively rare. This problem could be replaced by smaller local slaughterhouses, but this would also require transportation and the associated stress for the animals. Therefore, the main potential of a mobile slaughterhouse is to minimise manipulation and transport of the animals prior to slaughter and, consequently, to improve meat quality. On the other hand, the advantage of a mobile slaughterhouse is also to replace home slaughtering. The mobile slaughterhouse has a properly equipped slaughter line with all equipment, a possible meat cold room, a clean hot water supply and its own disposal slaughter line and storage. The latter certainly contributes to the protection of the environment, as animal by-products are not illegally disposed of. The mobile slaughterhouse is certainly a more expensive way of slaughtering animals, but considering its mission, it is very well accepted by the public. The results of the questionnaires show that the public is very much in favour of mobile slaughterhouses and is willing to buy the meat obtained in this way, even at much higher prices. In any case, the idea of a mobile slaughterhouse is still relatively unused, which is why we give some facts in the following overview.
