Pooja offering in Villages

Hi, Friends sorry for late updates from my end.

Like every year this year also I went to my village for Holi celebrations. Holi is the festival of colors, and in the villages very year people celebrates the festival and make special pooja for their ideal deity  or I can say every family has one traditional deity which family has been offering pooja for generation to generation.

There is one strange tradition for making pooja offering goat sacrifice.and this pooja takes place two times in a year, so every year more than 40 goats sacrificed. I asked personally with locals and this is what tradition has been following for long time and by seeing this new generation adopt this.

But what I notice there that young people are not very much interested while goats were being sacrificed they moved out from there, because they could barely see this.

I talked to the older persons of my village regarding stopping this tradition and they replied me by saying that their deities are like this they want blood in offerings,which can not be stopped.
