For the maintenance of their bodies and the satisfaction of their tongues, cruel persons cook poor animals and birds alive. Such persons are condemned even by man-eaters. In their next lives they are carried by the Yamadūtas to the hell known as Kumbhīpāka, where they are cooked in boiling oil.

Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)

Cruel persons who cook poor animals and birds alive and who are condemned even by Rākṣasas are cooked in boiling oil by the servants of Yama in the next life in Kumbhīpāka. Prāṇataḥ means “while alive.”
