That question interests me too. My guess (but my guess only) is that
-Before slaughtering, animals shouldn't be parked in dark trucks; they should
have enough space to move freely.
-They shouldn't see, hear or smell (the blood of) other animals being
slaughtered.
-The process of killing should be as fast as possible.
