Physical trauma makes sense for large animals. If you have 50 lab rats that you need to euthanize, a gassing setup can make more sense than individually whacking them.
Completely agreed, but at that point, just use nitrogen, it's insane that this isn't the standard practice.

It makes sense and is more convenient, yes, but they were saying that it's more humane to do the physical instead.
If you had the time and patience to do a tiny bolt gun to the brain of all 50 rats individually it would probably be more humane. But it's inconvenient and difficult.
