2000 lb.bulls found dead in Oregon with tongues and genitals cut off, and no blood around.

[Cousin Dupree]

No leads. And not the first time this has happened.

1. This stuff is starting again? There was a wave of this in the 80's or 90's

Wait it was in the mid 70's and the FBI investigated it.
More than 1500 cattle were bloodlessly mutilated in 22 states.

2. I think we are getting closer to disclosure.

These mutilations have been going on for YEARS.

First time I have seen a mainstream media pick up the story.

Folks, we aren’t alone...better get used to it...just my gut feeling.

No pun intended.

[jcgoldie]

3. Beamed up by aliens and dropped lol

Thats surely the aliens favorite cuts of beef, cow tongues and testicles...

[Generic Other]

32. They do seem to favor the earth oysters

Hit my area in the 80s and 90s.

[GemDigger]

45. aliens are not the only ones that like them. My first thought was

that the "Testicle Festival" was around and they are hard to find. It's not something you can get anytime you want.

[lapfog_1]

4. It happened in Colorado decades ago

and speculation ran wild about Aliens, etc

Turns out they died from a rare form of encephalitis and the genitals and tongue (and sometimes the brains) were removed by small carnivores and bacteria attacking the soft tissues and easy body entry points first.

[Scurrilous]

5. ...

[Disaffected]

7. Please,

don't ruin everything with fact and logic.

[lapfog_1]

10. oops, sorry

Lets get our tinfoil hats out now... maybe organize a movement to rush Area 51

[Disaffected]

15. Right

behind you.

[TidalWave46]

14. I don't trust you.

Are you one of “them?”

[lapfog_1]

16. I've always felt that way

but then I got older and found that I was, sadly, human after all.

[A HERETIC I AM]

23. That is EXACTLY what one of "them" would say.

You probably don't have any fingerprints, do ya?

And your breath always smells minty, I'll bet.

[lapfog_1]

25. I wish... more dates and more money to spend on them

due to all the crimes I could get away with!

[jcgoldie]

18. Ding Ding Ding

I have cattle and livestock guard dogs, Pyrenees mix. They are awesome guarding calves goats, chickens, but they consume any dead animals on the farm to avoid attracting predators. Last year I lost my 2000 lb Angus herd bull. Healthy as could be and choked on a osage orange hedge apple. They try to chew them in the fall when they fall on the ground and occasionally get them lodged in their throat. When I found him the dogs had already eaten his nuts and tongue... A dead animal often has its mouth open and the tongue and testicles are the only accessible parts of the corpse that aren't covered in cowhide (the same tough stuff your shoes are made of.) Stop reading if you have a weak stomach because next they will go in through the anus and devour the innards. That's why the animal in the picture looks like a hollowed out shell. Who knows why the animals died, but the mutilation could have been canines, rodents... who knows what scavengers but the missing parts are not some mysterious sign of kinky alien bestiality fetishes...

[lapfog_1]

20. grew up on a ranch myself.

so this isn't some strange event.

The only strange thing is a bunch of cattle dying at once due to a fast spreading disease that isn't noticed by the rancher until there are dozens of dead cattle around.

[jcgoldie]

21. Or some poisonous plant that only grows a certain time of year perhaps?

If I ever lost more than one cow at a time I'd sure as hell start wondering what was in the hay.

[lapfog_1]

24. possibly

all I remember was the stories from Colorado in the 1970s complaining about "cow mutilation" and then the discovery (a decade later I think) about the disease that afflicted them.

[Hekate]

27. Fascinating. Gruesome, to be sure, but fascinating....

[Kali]

29. yep, I have watched enough large animal carcasses go through decomposition to know

lack of blood and "surgical" removal of genitals, mouthparts, eyes is totally normal.

amusing how people who have never looked at a dead animal suddenly know aliens have been mutilating cows.

[A HERETIC I AM]

41. Yeah, but you live in an Arizona Canyon, 4500 feet up in the air.

What do YOU know, huh?

[Ptah]

48. Maggots. I see maggots!

[Kid Berwyn]

30. Got a link for that?

Linda Moulton Howe investigated those and reported that, in typical cases, the animals were drained of blood. There usually was no blood at the scene. The edges of the wounds — typically tongues, sex organs, a/o anuses removed surgically — appeared cauterized. No footprints or signs of humans or other animals in the vicinity. In many cases, predators stayed away from the carcasses long after discovery. And, yes, there are connections to the UFO phenomenon.

Her book, An Alien Harvest, is solidly researched and documented.

[lapfog_1]

34. While this doesn't cover every case, included in the speculative reasons is the one I related

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cattle_mutilation#Conventional_explanations

[Kid Berwyn]

43. Thank you. Wikipedia can be very informative.

I like the links, even to the professional skeptic types.

[Beringia]

6. How strange, somebody wants blood?

The story says:
On his whiteboard, he has a running list scrawled in green marker with the top theories. What's clear: It isn't bears, wolves, cougars or poisonous plants. Nor were the animals shot.


But they don't give us his running list of top theories.

[Drahthaardogs]

8. I have seen this in real life

I don't believe it's human caused, but it's weird

[roamer65]

17. I'd like to see one in person.

After two aerial sightings I definitely could not explain away in 2011 and 2012, I would like to know more.

[Brother Buzz]

9. George Noory's Coast to Coast AM was on this last week, like a fly on shit

[riversedge]

11. umm. strange looking carcass............

looks like its innards are gone.

[A HERETIC I AM]

13. He's fine. He's just restin'

He is trying to lose weight and is on the "I'll just lay in the sun till I'm a bit dried out" diet.

He'll be right as rain in no time.

[defacto7]

22. Some chicken soup might help.

[A HERETIC I AM]

26. Yup.

Extra celery.

Bulls like extra celery in their soup.

[CentralMass]

37. He's just pining for the Fiords.

[A HERETIC I AM]

38. Yes...the Fjords of the Pacific Northwest.

The Great British Colombian Tan and White. What's wrong with it, then?

"The only reason he is still lying in that spot is because he has been NAILED there.

That and all his guts have dried up and blown away....BUT STILL!"

[CentralMass]

40. :-)

[Autumn]

35. Strange, usually they bloat. That one looked like a deflated balloon.

[A HERETIC I AM]

39. Dry environment.

First the bloating, then the deflating.

[roamer65]

12. Definitely worth a deeper investigation.

Harry Reid thought the same of aerial “phenomena”.

We should reopen Project Blue Book, for real.

[WhiteTara]

19. I had a very close friend who spent years

traveling around investigating the cattle mutilations. Here's an article I found that was written about another woman Barbara was working with
https://www.zersetzung.org/about-dr-karla-turner

[qazplm135]

28. I see Ted Cruz has been hunting again

shame.

[underpants]

31. Oh. Sorry about that. That was Karl. He's new.

[Baclava]

33. The visitors? Ay they're not real, man

[IcyPeas]

36. Here's proof! The Truth is Out There people!

[milestogo]

42. Is "beaming up" actually a thing for cows?

Who knew?

[struggle4progress]

44. It's sounds strangely similar to what's happening in DC

We found a big bullshitter in the White House with no brains! and he was surrounded by many other bullshitters with no balls!

[GemDigger]

46. Bazinga!

[Farmer-Rick]

47. It's never aliens.

Not enough evidence to prove it was aliens. Where are the little alien footprints? Where are the landing markings? Why has no one any alien evidence?

It's never aliens.
