Vayikrà

The Torah reading, Vayikra, begins the third book of the Torah. This portion will provide a description of the various sacrifices , animal, fowl, and meal-offerings , offered by the priests in this newly constructed Sanctuary. G‑d calls out to Moses from the Tabernacle and teaches him the laws of the elective burnt offering, the Olah sacrifice, the laws of the cattle, sheep, or goat Olah. 
G‑d instructs the Jews to add salt to every animal sacrifice or meal offering, a symbol of our everlasting "salt covenant" with G‑d.
The Shelamim sacrifice which could be brought from cattle, sheep, or goats

The Chatat sacrifice.
The Korban Oleh Viyored depended on the financial position of the transgressor,a wealthy person brought a sheep or goat, a person of lesser means brought two birds, and a pauper brought a meal offering.
The Asham Sacrifices.
