End the Slaughter: Ban Eid Sacrifice in Bangladesh

Eid al-Adha, “Feast of Sacrifice,” is approaching — and across Bangladesh, millions of terrified animals are being prepared for a brutal and bloody death.

Bangladesh’s Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock estimates that approximately 12.33 million animals will be made available nationwide for ritual slaughter this year, including 5.69 million cows and buffaloes and 6.63 million goats and sheep.

The government is not preventing the violence.
It is responsible for it.
