Pakistani residents watch as a crane lifts a bull from the roof of a building in preparation for the Muslim annual festival of Eid Al-Adha or the Festival of Sacrifice, in Karachi, in this Aug. 4, 2019 file photo. In Karachi alone nearly half a million cows, goats and other camels will be sold or sacrificed during the Eid Al-Adha holiday. But in the sprawling city of around 20 million, notorious for its gridlocked traffic, dense neighborhoods, and woeful lack of green space, some roofs are transformed into temporary livestock pins ahead of Eid. — AFP
