The muslims also have a tradition of sacrificing animals during Eid al-Adha (or what they call Hari Raya Haji here in South East Asia). It has more to do with remembering Abraham's sacrifice of (called off) of his son than the Jewish tradition above, but I wouldn't be surprised to find they are related in some way.
There are many similarities between Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
Also... thanks Levite. That was very cool.
