Balem who whipped donkeys with a stick. If possible let your answer be

Animal sacrifice is mentioned many times in the Bible.

A guy named Benaiah killed a lion out in the snow:... "the son of
Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man, of Kabzeel, who had done many
acts, he slew two lionlike men of Moab: he went down also and slew a
lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow":

Also the guy he worked for named David killed a bear when he was young
and looking after some sheep. Hope this helps

animal sacrifice is not an example really since the animal was killed
in the swiftest way possible so that minimal pain is caused thus while
there may have been some pain the intention was towards taking the
animals best interests into account.
Besides the examples already mentioned one could consider the sending
out of the shegoat with all Israel's sins on it on Yom Kippur to be
cruel to said goat.
then of course the egyptians drive their horses into the sea after the
Israelites and people and horses perish when the waters are brought
back over them.
both nimrod and esau are noted as being skilled hunters

Noah keeps 2-7 of every animal in the world on an ark that hardly
seems to conform sizewise with US zoo spacing regulations

I believe in the book of numbers there's a plague in which many quail die
