Actually I believe they get a bolt gun to the head. It's more animal's lives than their deaths I worry about. My dad keeps some pigs and looks after them well and then has them butchered, I feel better about eating that meat than any other. Some people have told me they think that's super creepy though.
My mum lives on a large sheep station, and they also breed some of their sheep for food - well, not specifically; they are mainly bred for wool, but some are used for food. The animals are killed very quickly - when i've been on holidays there and have had a mutton roast or chops, the meat has always tasted better (not a huge surprise) and i've always felt a little better eating it. I know how it was killed, and i know that the animals were treated very well during their lives.
