- Ante-mortem Inspection by an Official Veterinarian
- Basis for Requirements
- A. In so far as the European Community and the US cattle brought to slaughter are similar in age and health status the two systems are parallel to one another. Under both EC and US systems, each animal that has served more than one purpose during its lifetime before going to slaughter is thoroughly examined by a veterinarian upon ante-mortem inspection. The differences between the EC and US systems lie in the handling of animals that are unique to the cattle industry and for which there is no counterpart in the EC system.
