Apparatus for separating a flock of animals into groups.

摘要

Apparatus is provided for separating a flock of animals into groups, prior to being slaughtered in a slaughterhouse. The apparatus comprises an oblong corridor (5) which is wide enough to allow the animals to turn around in the corridor, and at least one transverse wall (7; 8; 9) protrudes from one side wall of the corridor so far into the corridor that two animals cannot pass through the gap between the transverse wall and the other side wall of the corridor at the same time, whereas one animal has free access through the gap. <IMAGE>
