This is doubtless beside the point but now I'm wondering about logistics and how hard it would be to arrange an animal sacrifice. I'm sure I can just buy a lamb somewhere. Do I need a license to sacrifice? What's the going rate on altar rental?
I wonder if those regulations apply if you're not planning to use the animal for food. Though I guess it's a shame to sacrifice an animal and then not eat it.

I went down a rabbit hole looking this up and didn't get very far. There are regulations about slaughter being humane which presumably apply even if you don't eat it. There are specific laws about ritual slaughter and NOT doing it at home, presumably to ensure it IS humane.

But a lot of the specifics in the law seem to apply to animals usually slaughtered, and to Jewish and Islamic (non sacrifice) slaughter specifically, so I don't know what regulations apply otherwise. It sounds like you may need a license for non family to eat it?
