Workers pick up sedated red hybrid tilapia from a floating pen to be weighed and sorted during the harvest at a fish farm in Thailand. Clove oil is a fast acting sedative that is used to calm fish prior to the harvest, making it easier for workers to handle the fish and minimize damage to them from too much struggling.

Workers at a fish farm in Thailand weigh and pack fresh red hybrid tilapia that have recently been slaughtered by "live chilling".
Workers sort sedated red hybrid tilapia during the harvest at a fish farm in Thailand. Those fish large enough to be sold are tossed into plastic drums, while the smaller fish are tossed back into floating pens. To deliver to certain supermarket chains, the weight and condition of the fish is strictly regulated, thus sedative is regularly used during the harvest to reduce damage to the fish from their struggling.

A worker at a fish farm in Thailand pushes a cart containing a drum of sedated red hybrid tilapia that have recently been harvested. The fish will be transported to a supermarket and sold fresh.

Live tilapia slowly suffocate in a basket at an Indonesian fish slaughterhouse. A worker uses a wooden stick to strike and kill the fish as part of the slaughtering process.
Workers at a fish market in Indonesia unload crates of dead milkfish from a transport truck.
During a nighttime harvest at an Indonesian milkfish farm, workers wearing protective helmets stand in the water of a fish pond pulling up on a harvesting net. Captured and crowded milkfish jump and struggle trying to flee from confinement within the net. Crowding the fish together deprives them of oxygen and they will eventually suffocate.
A worker carries dried hides piled on his head. The skins of large cattle from the Hindu states of India are particularly valuable because they tend to have less scars and blemishes due to their holy status.
A worker closes a large barrel filled with hides and chemicals, used for the tanning process at a tannery in Hazaribagh, Dhaka.
In Hazaribagh, a part of western Dhaka reknowned for its tanneries, several workers scrape the chemicaly dissolved fatty layers from the hides with specially designed knives.
