According to UFO enthusiasts, cattle mutilations are the work of aliens gathering the organs and tissues of the earth's dumbest creatures so that they can run nefarious experiments. Apparently, this sort of thing happens thousands, if not millions of times each year in North America alone. The UFO enthusiasts, always eager to make their crackpot beliefs appear scientific, have even come up with a fancy name for it: Mutology, the study of animal mutilations.The basic story runs like this: a farmer comes out to the pastures, where he finds a couple of his cows have been killed. But not just killed - they've been torn apart! Some of their organs or genitals have been removed, and some UFO enthusiasts go so far as to claim they've been sprayed with luminescent paint, used to identify them in the dark.So, it's simply a case of organ harvesting by beings from beyond, right? Not quite. Like all things paranormal in nature, there's no such thing as a simple definition. Some cattle are found dead with no apparent cause of death, not a single mark on their bodies. Others are found torn to ribbons. Sometimes it's the tongues, genitals, specific organs, muscle tissue, skin, eyes, hooves...basically, the aliens have a long, long shopping list.

What it comes down to is this: if your cattle is dead, no matter what happened to it, it can be construed as an alien cattle mutilation.Surely, you say, there must be some evidence to support this crazy ass theory. There is. Here's the UFO enthusiasts' argument that aliens are killing our cattle, in it's entirety: since we can't prove that they're not doing it, they must be doing it. That's it. That's as complicated as it gets. The argument that there are solely natural forces at work, explanations that require no beings from other planets, is a lot better.

I don't like this article. It's bias. Then again, good to see your enemeys ammunition before hand.

But he makes a valid point, just because you can't prove what happened to an animal does not mean that there is alien involvement. Why would they travel to Earth and mutilate some cows?

Agreed walken.

I guess the words "surgically removed" mean nothing here.

Not to mention the fact that the soft tissues (lips, anus, etc.),
which are most often taken, are the best to test for radiation
levels...

This must change the ranchers view of ETs.

Apparently the author is an expert on animal mutilations, what a joke. He makes the assumption that all deaths related to cows are caused by aliens, and the ranchers that report this, don't have the capacity to know the difference from an animal tearing another animal apart, to something that looks like surgery was performed on it. So if your going to tell a story make sure and tell the full story, not just what appeals to you, and your biased b.s. And for some to say that it doesn't make any sense for aliens to come down to earth and dissect animals is arrogant, as their could be a million possible reasons that we can't understand. I mean humans do this all the time, its called animal experimentation. So, skep'dic', get the facts before you make dumbass commentaries, and talk to the people this has happened to.

One of the nice parts of the U.M. is the link to the source material, where you can decide the validity and credentials of the author. After reading the whole article, plus comments that were below it, I find this young man wanting. Apparently he writs on many subjects, but is the master of none.
Possibly after getting a degree in journalism he will get a good job writing for a super market tabloid, but then only on the BACK PAGE!

As for the topic a neighbor of mine found her horse near death one morning cause SOME ONE had cut out it's tong. The case was never salved,but was ASSUMED to be the work of Satan Worshippers in the area.

IT's A MYSTERY!

That is sad and disturbing Roger

poor horse

It is possible that some of these mutilations are the result of...other worldly things. But I doubt it is on the scale that people say it is. I agree that it is probably just bugs and the like picking out the softest and easiest parts of the animal to eat...but, it doesn't offer an explanation for mass cattle mutilations, when an entire heard has been killed. Either way, I think both explanations can be put to use, it just depends on the situation.

::Runs to hide cows, just in case::

I some times think the Air Force is behind a lot of them. If you have ever eaten thoughs MRE's. Flying over a herd of fresh beef would give me a thought or two, and with a well armed Apache with a wench to haul it up. Oh ya, Break out the BBQ sauce.

There have been a few reports around my area of the province over the years. I talked to a rancher about the last cases and he said the "official conclusion" put the mutilations down to coyotes who do choose to eat the softer tissues (lips, rectum, udder) before going further into the animal.

I don't think the ranchers are 100% convinced though, nor am I.

Here's a couple links to some neat info on the subject:

Cattle Mutilations 1

Cattle Mutilations 2 (Caution Graphic Pictures not for the squeamish)

In one of the photos that said no blood was fond, yet I see a large darkened area that has to come from the animal. for what ever reason it looks as if some one cut the hide around the neck, then pealed off just the head covering. looks like something a Taxidermist would do. May have been staged by some one for publicity.

I live in alberta, canada, personally I have no experience with cattle mutilations, but my friends dad did, he had seen them first hand and was quite amazed. He is the head computer programmer for the UofA and has written and installed sattelite software for the pentagon, there is no doubt that he is educated.

his oppinion on this subject is that some alien beings are abducting our cattle. The reason for this is quite simple, they want to be able to interact with our species. But there is a problem with this as they carry natural bacteria and viruses in their bodies from their natural habitat just like we do except they have no immunities to our strains and we have no immunities to theirs, so if there ever was an interaction between our species then our microscopic organisms could be transfered, if this happened the results could be devestating for both species, it could potentially wipe out all life on this planet.

what a cold virus does is it enters a host and makes that animal sick, then multiplies and moves to another animal, this is not limited to any particular species as a cold virus is airborn and can easily affect a human or a cow.

so they have chosen to abduct cows because they are logically the best choice, they are usually kept in isolated areas and they interact with humans regularly plus they will be killed anyway.

Cows are always sick, if you look at one chances are it has snot running out of its nose because it has a cold.

But there is a wide array of microscopic life which could be deadly for them and they must create immunities to them all if they want to have any type of co-existance with us. This is why they are abducting so many cattle, they need to be 100% sure they have accounted for all microbes.

In retrospect they would also have to create a strain of virus which they could infect our planet with so that it would give life here on earth natural immunities to the strains which they carry.

If you were the only advanced species in the galaxy you would feel lonely and jump at the chance to interact with another intelligent species, you would likely have had a long time to sort out your aggressive tendancies which come from the sess pool of unintelligent and unsophisticated life.

Therefore they would use discression when dealing with us as we still have many of these aggressive tendancies and they would be more afraid of that then anything.

Ultimatley we must all hope that these aliens are a type 3 civilization as only one such as that would see life as precious and would want to preserve the rarity of this planet earth, yet they would also let nature take its course.

All we can do is marvel at their discretion.

Welcome to the forum gordy.

Good points STIX

Thanks for posting.
Very hard to find post like this.

Historically the damage done when the Europeans came to America was devastating to the Native Indians. You have made an excellent explanation.
