Is there a logical and wordly explanation for cattle mutilation?

Question

If so, what is it?

Answer 1

Coyotes plus over-active imagination.

Answer 2

Normal decay with some animal/insect activity.

Answer 3

The mutilations were primarily done for the sake of research by the greys back at its beginning. However, since the military has reverse engineered the technology taken from the few crashes back in the 50's and have been able to replicate the technology, the military has been doing the mutilations in an attempt to cast a poor shadow on alien life. This and other false information has been given to the public to make the aliens look like the bad guys. In the next few years or so the military will come forward stating that there has indeed been contact and it has been kept top secret because they didnt want to spread panic about the "hostile" aliens. They will be labeled the next "terrorist" and mankind will be ready to fight with the technology harnessed from the crashes.

Dont believe the hype when it all goes down, they dont mean to harm us.

Cheers

Answer 4

Yep. Predators and scavengers usually go for the soft external tissues first.

Answer 5

I would also have to go for the predators eating the soft

tissue. The precise cuts are indicative of bird beaks and

small teeth of rodents.

Now, there is also an issue that, having been associated

with ranching, I am familiar with. There are rustlers who

drive around in vans or trucks that are essentiall mobile

butcher shops. What you will find of the animals, when they

are successful are any parts they cannot sell.  If they

get interrupted in their operations, what might be found

are partially mutilated carcasses.

Answer 6

Overactive imaginations --- No little green men are paying us a visit removing cow guts for examination.... Its either coyotes, or weirdos,,,,

Answer 7

no... those animals were cut with the precision of an expert surgeon or the precision of a Laser with no blood spilled whatsoever..

Answer 8

Predators or natural death is followed by scavengers and natural decay.  Nothing mysterious about it.

And besides, why is it that just because someone doesn't understand it automatically means ET aliens are responsible for it?  So we have (yet another) example of "I don't understand"=paranormal or supernatural.

Answer 9

The Washington County, Arkansas Sheriff's Department did an experiment where they placed a dead cow in a field then observed it for the next couple of days. They found that blowflies and maggots accounted for the missing soft tissue and bloating caused the incision-like tears in the hide.

In 1979 former FBI agent Kenneth Rommel headed a government-funded investigation that concluded that normal predation and decomposition were the culprits.

Answer 10

No.

I was in Oklahoma in 1975 & 1976 and spoke with some people there that told me how many and how frequently they would happen.

They knew they were coming from UFOs because they had seen them.

Here is the part most of your answerers are uneducated about. Many of these animals weren't killed where they were found, they were dropped there. What makes it so difficult to prove is that there are no tracks.. No known lights or helicopters and the animals had to have been dropped from a very low level. No tracks anywhere near the animals and sometimes they were found miles from where they were last seen earlier in the night. Sometimes animals that were known to have grazed together were found dead the next day miles and many fences apart.

Don't forget these were done with precision laser type incisions, the animals did not bleed and it has been suggested that these occurred while the animal yet lived, dying in the process of course.

The biggest losers were the horse ranchers who would find a half million dollar animal expertly mutilated.

Mutilations with this type of surgical skill don't only happen to grazing animals, all types of animals have been victim to this.

You can rest assured that if you ask a major western rancher, he or she will tell you this is nothing to make light of, we loose far too much livestock to the mutilations.
