This happened about 30 miles from where I live. I heard about this back in the 1970’s but thought it had ceased. Cultists or something similar? I really don’t buy the UFO angle.
"A cow and a bull were both killed overnight. An ear cut off. A section of hide detached. The scrotum and penis carefully removed. The vaginal cavity gone. The blood drained.
No discernible tracks were found near the carcasses, which were lying near an infrequently traveled road. Little blood was found on the ground and the cow was wedged up into a tree as if trying to escape from something.
In his decades of living in the scrubby pinyon-juniper forests north of Williams, the 66-year-old Mahan has raised horses and small herds of cattle and seen animals killed by predators such as mountain lions and coyotes. He has witnessed scavengers such as ravens and vultures picking at carrion, but never has he witnessed the deliberate dismemberment he saw last week."
Cattle mutilations are one of the few things that truly mystify me. If it is cultists, are they really that wide spread yet able to mostly stay under the radar? Aliens, while I suppose possible seems improbable to me. Same with secret gov’t programs using silent, high tech, anti-gravity vehicles… yes, I watch too many conspiracy shows when I’m bored.
Sounds like some dickheads trying to make people think it’s cults, UFOs or whatever so they can get their jollies torturing animals and feeling like they are smarter than everyone else.
About 10 years ago FL had a rash of feral humans who were butchering horses alive to sell the meat. Humans truly disgust me some times.
Did you read the comment section under the article? They tell you what happened.

“The cow didn’t climb up into the fork of the tree, it was dropped from the air from a ufo. We have had these mutilations in Oklahoma and they are ET related. 90% of mutilations are done on pregnant female cows, and the left ear is always taken. Ever seen a bigfoot fetus in a cow? I know a rancher that found a dead cow with a bigfoot fetus, and he had been plagued with mutilations. Apparently they didn’t make it back in time to do a c section or mutilation and take the bigfoot fetus. Subsequently the cow went into labor and died because the bigfoot fetus was to big. We’re dealing with other worldy entiities with advanced dna knowledge and they’re incubating bigfoots in cows. They take a cow egg, suck out the dna and replace it with bigfoot dna, then reinsert it back into the cow and put a tracking implant in the ear, that they retrieve by cutting the ear off when they return to retrieve the bigfoot fetus. The big question is, why are they incubating up an army of bigfoots? Maybe to take over the world someday? Truth is stranger than fiction.”
It has happened in New Mexico over the years, and always it was suspected to be Satan Worshipers from some big city, at least until the last one. A few years ago a rancher 20 miles north of here I know in Harding County found two of his cattle killed. He saw the vultures circling and rode out to investigate. Two steers killed with an oval shaped incision to remove the heart of both. No blood on the ground and the cattle were found @ three miles from the nearest road. I got to see some digital images shown to me by a sheriff’s deputy friend who was alerting other ranchers and asking questions about strangers in the area.
As a former rotor pilot, I figured the cattle may have been killed elsewhere and deposited in their found location by helicopter, but the rancher heard nothing that sounded like a choppper in his area. Another question was were these his cattle and brands were checked to verify they were his. The cattle had been dead a few days before they were found considering the level of putrefaction.
I have no answer for this. A lot of work in a very remote area to remove the hearts of two steers, and leave no evidence of footprints or vehicle tracks. Some of the old time Spanish ranchers think it’s the work of Satanic Demons, not people. Lots of superstitious people in rural New Mexico.
