CORRECTION-NEPAL-RELIGION-FESTIVAL-ANIMAL-SACRIFICE

A butcher wields his kukri, a traditional Nepalese knife, over a buffalo calf right before severing its head during a mass slaughter of buffaloes for the Gadhimai festival inside a walled enclosure in the village of Bariyapur on November 28, 2014. Millions of Hindu devotees from Nepal and India migrate to the village to honour their goddess of power. The celebrations includes the slaughtering of hundreds of thousands of animals, mostly buffalo and goats. Worshippers have spent days sleeping out in the open and offering prayers to the goddess at a temple decked with flowers in preparation.
