Saturday is the major sacrificial day when a steady parade of chickens, ducks, goats, sheep, pigs and even the occasional buffalo come here to have their throats cut or their heads lopped off by professional local butchers. The dead animals are then butchered by the on-site meat shop where they are skinned, de-boned, diced and prepared to cook. Whole families often have a big feast that day or enjoy picnicking in a forest near by the Temple.
