Seventeenth, there are also sentient beings who lack male organs and become eunuchs, never marrying throughout their lives. What transgression caused this? The Buddha said: In their past lives, they castrated elephants, horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, and dogs, bringing them to the point of dying and reviving. Therefore, they incurred this retribution.
