Sacrifice was done for two reasons:
1. As part of the act of repentance for unintended 'sin'.
2. To give thanks to HaShem (The Creator).

Well, they were not selling them in the Temple, they were selling them in an outer courtyard. Until it was destroyed, the Temple was a center where Jews brought animal sacrifices. The Torah, when it commands the sacrifices, says that you could bring your own animal, but if the distance was far, you could "turn your animal into money", then travel and buy an animal in Jerusalem to sacrifice. So, from the start, there was a livestock market at the Temple where animals could be purchased to sacrifice. The rules for sacrificial animals were fairly strict: The animals had to be without blemish. So, the market was under priestly supervision to assure that the animals sold there met the requirement.
