Machete or snapping the neck. Not sure about this tool.
According to the box...Humane...lets see. OK Chick Open wide and I'll stick this in your beak back to your pea brain and squeeze real quick! I Dunno...saw my grandma ring an neck, boom done. She'd catch them, calm them down and quick as a cat ~~~>/

Funny that this made me think of him.
Be nice John, don't say what you are thinking.....
