22. All quotations from Susie Coston in this chapter are from an inter-
    view by the author, February 7, 2007. Poultry science scholars agree that car-
    rying birds upright, rather than by the feet, which is standard practice on
    chicken farms, leads to less stress among the birds. See, e.g., Kannan and
    Mench, “Infl uence of Different Handling Methods.”
