It sounds like it is out of an Indiana Jones movie.....but its true.
At least 2,000 baby goats were slaughtered at a temple festival at Poosariyur in Erode district and their blood was consumed by the priests.
In an annual ritual during the Tamil month of Chithirai at Semmunisamy temple, hundreds of people gather for a bizarre thanksgiving. They come with baby goats, sacrifice them at the temple altar and hand them over to the three priests to taste the blood.
After drinking the blood of a few goats, the priests leave. And then it is free meat for all.
