What laws would apply to public animal sacrifices in modern times?

Now that I have your attention, I am writing an absurd short story in which one of the characters decides to sacrifice a cow in a city park. This will probably get him in a lot of trouble, but what kind of legal violations would he most likely get charged with? Would it be something generic like disturbing the peace, or would there be any more specific laws applying to such grisly displays?

For what it’s worth, the story probably takes place in Calgary, Alberta. This is a North American city of about one million people.
