Humane handling falls under which CFR Part?

• A. Title IX of the Code of Federal Regulations (9 CFR) Part 313
• B. 7 CFR Part 320
• C. 10 CFR Part 440
• D. 12 CFR Part 1020

Answer: (A)

Humane handling is addressed directly in the regulations that implement the Humane Slaughter Act, which are found in Title 9 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 313. This part lays out the requirements for how livestock must be handled and slaughtered to minimize pain and distress, including proper stunning methods and facility practices during slaughter. It’s the specific section that governs humane handling, enforced by the USDA during inspections of slaughter facilities. The other parts cover topics outside humane handling, so they don’t apply to this regulation.
