A moment of the Cow Killing Ceremony of the Mro tribal
At night, men walk in front playing bamboo flutes while girls walk behind and dance in the Cow Killing Ceremony of the indigenous Mro tribal in Bandarban district, Bangladesh. This ceremony is now very rare—it is about to disappear because many of them have converted from nature-worshippers to other religions that do not observe this ceremony.
