When is the sacrificial animal obligatory in Hajj?

The questioner : But does he have to offer a sacrificial animal?
The Shaykh : No, they should not be too expansive. The scholars are expansive in making blood (sacrifices) obligatory, but there are no sacrifices except in three or four places in Islam.
The questioner : The obligatory blood (sacrifice) is what they perform.
The Shaykh : Yes, this... you are saying that you missed the night of standing at 'Arafah because you went to work there, is that right?
The questioner : Three places?
The Shaykh : This is the blood (sacrifice) for tamattu' and the blood (sacrifice) for shaving the head:[Al-Baqarah 2:196], and then there is a third blood (sacrifice) for hunting.

فمن كان به أذى من رأسه ففدية مِنْ صِيَامٍ أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ أَوْ نُسُكٍ
