Old Dhaka - Karwan Bazaar - Meat/Chicken

After the fish came rice, and the butchery aisle - as Dad didn't feel like he could stomach that, we carried on outside, and into the chicken dispatch area - don't carry on reading if you don't want to see images you might find disturbing


animals waiting to be slaughtered next to the butcher


bitchers
goat meat - if you were wondering..



 The guy grabs a big handful of chickens by the feet, and very quickly slits their throats, they are then thrown into the barrels to bleed to death (the barrels move a lot)
The chicken are very quickly plucked  (feathers are kept for stuffing pillows, making dusters etc)




 







this is the crowd we drew - taking photos of dad and me!
