While the new political system of Bhutan disfranchised all religions personalities and excluded them from public political sphere, Buddhist monasteries and monks are conducing grand Buddhist rituals to save the animals and increasing its influences on the society. In those situation, "savage" indigenous rituals and worships involving the sacrifice of animals have been gradually marginalized and the sense of repulsion for carnivorous eating and slaughter is expanding. This study aimed to describe how the society redefine the conventional pastoral custom of slaughter and the presence of slaughterer in the society though the dispute between the slaughter renunciation movement and increasing economic demands for slaughterhouses.
