This is really gross... but I've used captive bolts on pig, cattle and horse carcasses (just their heads) at a field trip meat lab thingy (outside of class). There is only one tiny spot on the horse's head that they work well, and it was difficult to hit it even with a dead STILL head being held down by others.
IMO, all mass-slaughter plants are inhumane. And CAFO is SO bad for human health, the environment, and animals. The science says it all, but policy makers and the public are willfully ignorant.
