ENTRY DESCRIPTION
We have always associated the idea of the slaughterhouse with livestock and the sacrifice of these animals for our nutrition. Otherwise, we don't feel empathy for fish; we do not think of the moment of their death, perhaps because it is slow and silent. On the pier of Chatham (Massachusetts, US), when the fishing boats return, you can watch the unloading of the fish often still alive through steel slides in huge containers, in which each animal overlaps with others already gutted. It's a fish hell.
