Why is "Animal sacrifice in Hinduism" trending?

Wikipedia Overview

The practice of Hindu animal sacrifice is in recent times mostly associated with Shaktism, and in currents of folk Hinduism strongly rooted in local popular or tribal traditions. Animal sacrifices were an important part of the ancient Vedic Era in India, and are mentioned in Vedas as Yajna. Over the period shape of rituals and sacrifice changed with shifting of pastoral economy of Early-vedic period to agriculture centric economy of Later-vedic. This shift in economy also impacted the rituals and sacrifice replacing animal sacrifice with grains in Srauta Yajnas. During Medieval period religious movements like Bhakti movement also had a great impact on this tradition evident in Hindu scripture like Brahma Vaivarta Purana which forbids the Srauta Asvamedha Horse sacrifice in Kali Yuga. The perception that animal sacrifice was only practiced in ancient Non-Vedic Era is opposed by instances like Srauta Ashvamedha and other rituals that are rooted in Vedas. Both the Itihasas and the Puranas like the Devi Bhagavata Purana and the Kalika Purana as well as the Saiva and Sakta Agamas prescribe animal sacrifices.
