*facepalms* Stop this for Gods sake :( Worlds biggest animal sacrifice fair begins in Nepal : Every five years, the world’s largest animal sacrifice takes place at the Gadhimai Temple in Nepal. The month-long festival has raised controversy due to the large number of animals killed – up to 500,000 over two days. Thousands of buffaloes, mostly calves, were sacrificed at an enclosed field close to the temple of Goddess Gadhimai, a Hindu deity, believed by devotees to grant wishes if they sacrifice animals and birds. But unlike previous occasions, the total number of sacrifices is expected to be much lesser this time due to efforts by animal rights activists and a ban on bringing animals to the fair from India. hindustantimes/world-news/nepal-mass-animal-slaughter-underway-despite-protests/article1-1290956.aspx
