I don't know about the sacrificial practices of rural Peloria, but the sacrifice of bulls [and horses] for fertility and prosperity has ample precedence in the RW, so i'd guess that pelorians do it too. In what form i don't know, but your latter suggestion seems a likely proposition, as the scenario hook provides MGF.

Shouldn't there also be a mutual exchange of ceremonial gifts during the
marriage connected with the courtship myth? Are there any 'children' born
of this marriage?

he believes in anything or not.' - Monty Python
