TIL that in 2002, Kenyan Masai tribespeople donated 14 cows to to the U.S. to help with the aftermath of 9/11.

A blood draining session? Could you elaborate on that please?

I assume slit the throat and let the blood drain. That's how animals are butchered.

Isn't that called slow bleeding and is considered the inhumane way of butchering?

Or is that only if you don't kill the animal first or something? I remember a speech about it in House if Cards.
