Text 25 Nov Eid’s Mass Cow Sacrifice

The other day, while coming home from work, we noticed hordes of cows leashed onto posts. HORDES of them, enough to feed everyone in dhaka probably.

We asked our happy-go-lucky driver Mizan, “Why beshi (many) cows?”

He replied by making a sound of himself getting strangled, then a “SHESH!” which meant “finished” or “over” in Bengali.

“Sakurifize (sacrifice) for Eid holiday boss!”

“Ah~~~”

From a little research, I learned that they’ll start butchering these poor cows on the streets by tomorrow and sell them to the people.  The rest of which will be given to the homeless.

I know cows get butchered somewhere everyday, but on the streets? That should be interesting -and- painful to watch. Hoping to get some pictures of the cow-nage though haha. Korny amp.

Eid Mubarak!
