It depends on what you want to do with those cattle: slaughter them for meat of vaccinate them? For the latter, you'd run them through a handling facility (with a squeeze chute, crowding tub, etc.) in order to safely vaccinate, deworm, dehorn, tag and/orcastrate them.
Why are the cattle tortured in Indonesian slaughterhouses?
Because those people who are working at such slaughter houses have no regard for an animal's ability to feel pain. They pay no attention to the animal's well being and think it best to beat the animal to "tenderize the flesh" prior to slaughter. It's undoubtedly very cruel compared with how animals are treated in North American slaughter houses.

What is the tolerance level of the mycotoxin Zearalenone in cattle feed?
There is no established tolerance limit for Zearalenone, but because it is produced by a fusarium, I would say the limits should be similar to vomitoxin (also produced by a fusarium. Acceptable vomitoxin levels in the corn ranges from 5-100ppm depending on species. Just to give an idea, acceptable levels in the corn are 20ppm for swine, 30ppm for breeding cattle/poultry, 60ppm for slaughter cattle, and 100ppm for slaughter poultry. For accepted level in finished feed product, cut those numbers in half.
How much does cow weigh at slaughter?
For most cattle raised for the purpose of being slaughtered in the first place (being steers and non-breeding or non-productive heifers), and that are raised on conventional feedlots, the average slaughter weight is around 1400 lbs. However, this is only average, since most cattle are slaughtered on a grade scale, not weight. Cattle must have a grade of Select, Choice or Prime (preferably the latter two) in order to be deemed ready to "harvest." Such animals appear to be on the verge of being overweight because no skeletal features are showing on their frame, and they are very deep in the hips and round as well as in the barrel and ribs. They have quite a round rump, with a ring of fat starting at the tail-head. For those who raise their own slaughter steers or heifers, quite often they may choose to slaughter at a lighter weight: some may choose to slaughter when the steer is around 1100 to 1200 lbs, some even less. Of course this all depends on the breed that is being finished and what slaughter weight that particular breed is able to achieve. For example, a Jersey steer will finish at a lighter weight than a Charolais or Angus steer will.
