UFOs Linked to Cattle and Sheep Mutilation

Although the exact nature of mutilations varies from case to case, a typical mutilation might involve any or all of the following: -

* The removal of eyes, udders and sexual organs very cleanly with surgical precision.
* The removal of the anus to a depth of around 12 inches similar in appearance to surgical coring.
* The removal of the lips and/or tongue deeply cut out from the throat.
* The removal of one ear.
* The removal of major organs (such as heart or liver) with no obvious entry/excision marks. Often, if the heart is missing, apart from no excision wound, the Pericardium will still be present and intact, with the heart missing.
* The stripping of hide and flesh from the jaw and the area directly beneath the ear to the bone.
* The removal of soft organs from the lower body.
* The presence of incisions and cuts across the body that appear to have been made by a surgical instrument.
* Unexplained damage to remaining organs, but no sign of damage to the surrounding area.
* A lack of predation signs (including teethmarks, tearing of the skin or flesh, or animal footprints) on or around the carcass.
* Lack of obvious scavenging.
* In many cases, a draining of the majority of blood from the animal. What blood is left exhibits color anomalies and may not coagulate for days.
* The animal will appear 'dumped' or dropped in a secluded area, with no animal, human or vehicle track(s) leading to or from the site. Some have been found draped over fences or in treetops.
* The ground under the animal appears depressed, as if the animal was dropped on the site from a height leaving an impact crater.
* The animal's bones found to be fractured with injuries consistent with being dropped.
* Strange marks/holes in the ground around the carcass.
* Other cattle avoid the carcass and the area where it's found.
* Eyewitness reports of aerial objects in the vicinity of cattle at the time of an animal going missing.

Don't quote me on that - I was quoting a newspaper report

I don't want to paste a load of images in here but go into Google images and enter "cattle mutilation"

I like that alternative theory, though surely there are more effective ways of collecting such tissues rather than leaving the evidence dumped in such a way that it invites investigation. They could openly and easily acquire tissue samples from the abbatoirs for example covered by any number of agricultural and scientific excuses.

I can't image how nature could drop some of them from a considerable height unless a tornado passed by unnoticed by the farmer

How has this been determined? It's a bit obvious really, because they are often lying in a small depression their monentum has created in the ground and they have several broken bones, as you will find for yourself with a little bit of resarch if you were actually really interested in researching or debunking this stuff for yourself.

As regards the blowflies theory that is of course complete nonsense because these animals are found and reported by farmers and ranchers with years of experience of seeing what maggots and blowflies do to carcasses. What they find here is outside of their extensive experience - like this guy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtPhZVCKEhA

What really kicked off my interest in all this was my best mate's description of something he saw just beyond his back garden at 1.00am in the morning on April 12th 2004.

Now try to make this fit with something natural or man-made.

A black triangular object floating almost silently 50ft off the ground about the same size as his semi. It's just emitting a quiet hum. It's hovering over a cemetery and a beam of light is scanning the cemetery and an adjacent railway line. His wife and he stood and watched it from their bedroom window for 40 minutes, and yes he wishes he'd thought to go and get a camera but having had no interest or knowledge of the UFO phenomenon he didn't bother. They just watched it and the beam occasionally wafted across their window. For most of the time the beam was not illuminated and the object just floated above the ground. As they watched it accelerated upwards at a 45 degree angle - silently. It was gone in less than a second. It may be a coincidence but his wife had a splitting headache the next day and was sick - but then again she's a woman.

After a couple of weeks of mentioning this to his closer mates he discovered the name of a local, well known, UFO researcher Phil Hoyle. Mr. Hoyle came around and listened to Mark's story and said that a couple of other people in the same street had also seen the object.

Having spent a little time looking into this stuff it appears that these black triangular objects are sighted very regularly. I also came across a report of a lad seeing something matching the above description with a scanning beam in Cheshire. He fetched his father to take a look but they found nothing, except for a still smouldering hole burnt into a railway sleeper. The report is part way down this page http://www.guardian.co.uk/news/datablog/2009/aug/1...

The more you YouTube and Google about this UFO phenomenon the more you realise there's something very big going on out there.

Do you often contribute to the many pointless threads on here? Either you have sub-conscious interest in the topic or you have an overwhelming belief (and it can be nothing other than a belief) that alien visitations cannot be happening and wish to ridicule such ideas whenever possible. I suspect the latter It's a shame that you choose ridicule over sensible debate though.

Do you have a view on the Gordon Creighton clip?

In a previous thread and this one I have put links to statements being made by airline pilots, astronauts and academics though clearly you made your mind up sixty years ago Eric and the twitterings of such loons, weirdos and general idiots are not going to sway you.

That's not a UFO video, THIS is a UFO video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DKWhZgOXRU

I'm not saying it's not of this world or anything, just indicating that the UFO phenomenon is very real. Watch what it does at 2:15.
