My Dad is a Contractor and was hired to build a Slaughterhouse in Saudi Arabia for a Prince... this as a huge project and my Dad hired Temple to consult...he flew her out, and she worked with him a couple days and explained to him how to do this.. I haven't read her books..but I am wondering if she wrote about this at all.. this was a massive project...I do not know the Prince's name but he was a Prince in Saudi Arabia...it was a huge deal.. so I am thinking she may have wrote about it... anyone read the books or know what I am talking about?

This was a long time ago and I am curious about this...

The books are not so much about specific projects as they are about higher concepts. She doesn't really name drop or points to specific things

Couldn't really find anything, but my guess is it was for a Halal slaughterhouse, since it is necessary for the animals to feel no pain, be treated humanely and not see each other.

Temple Grandin is a huge proponent of doing it "right" so that animals are not traumatized or treated without respect.

I guess it is not important enough for you or else you would have read the book yourself. If it was my father I would have searched the seven seas. I would have used the old school catalog card to find the answer. You probably thought it should have been portrayed in the movie.
