A villager carries a lamb he retrieved after it was thrown by worshippers into a volcanic crater during a ritual to mark the Kasada festival at Mount Bromo in Indonesia's East Java province September 6, 2009. Villagers and worshippers throw offerings into the volcanic crater of Mount Bromo during the Kasada festival to give thanks to the Hindu gods for ensuring their safety and prosperity.

Although it's a ritual for over thousands of years, but I still think the offerings is very cruel, especially to the animals!
