Weird Cattle Deaths By Brian Simpson
While writing on deadly serious topics, many items of human interest come up in my news feed. Most I pass by. I did this with the mysterious cattle deaths in Texas, but then after thinking about it, I decided to cover it, as there is certainly something more to it.
In short, cattle have been found dead and mutilated in Texas, and apparently elsewhere. The cattle have been mutilated with surgical precision, and there is no blood, and no tire tracks, footprints and other evidence of who might have done this. As well, the carcasses did not show evidence of predators eating the meat, which is very odd indeed, given predators in the area. Too much junk food, I wonder?
Forget about the UFO cow abductions; the little green men would have all the cow DNA they could ever need. No, it seems that there must be a hit team of crazed environmentalists, wanting to make a statement about cows being a greenhouse gas threat. That would explain the creepy mutilations. The idea is to draw attention to this through slasher-style tactics. And, that it the really creepy thing about all this, if these fanatics are prepared to go to such lengths.
“Recent reports say that six cattle died mysteriously in Texas, all with their tongues removed, the hide around one side of their mouths gone, and without any apparent bloodshed. The Madison County Sheriff's Office released a statement saying that the cause — and time — of death was as yet unknown.
The cattle were found along Texas State Highway in three different counties, with each animal part of a different herd and in a different pasture, according to the sheriff's office. Five were adults, one a yearling.
Stranger still, in two cases, the animals' genitalia and anuses had been removed with a circular cut that the sheriff's office said had been made with the "same precision as the cuts noted around the jaw lines of each cow." Moreover, the grass around the bodies of all six animals was undisturbed, and there was no sign of struggle surrounding any of the carcasses. Nor were any footprints or tire tracks found.
And then there was this, according to the sheriff's office: "Ranchers also reported that no predators or birds would scavenge the remains of the cow, leaving it to decay untouched for several weeks." Hmm. Bizarre. Where is Rod Serling when you need him?
The sheriff's office also noted that similar incidents have been reported across the United States. Really? And this on top of the recent "explosion" that killed 18,000 cows in the Texas panhandle. Apparently, someone — or something — has it in for cows. Could the cow killings be the handiwork of crazed progressive greenies who believe that the animals' burps and farts are a key contributor to global warming/climate change?
Reports claim that an FBI agent who investigated previous mysterious cattle deaths told the Associated Press that there was no indication that anything other than common predators was responsible for the demise of the bovines.
"Common predators" are certainly not behind the slaughter of the half-dozen unlucky cattle chronicled here. No signs of struggle. No blood. No teeth marks or other visible injuries.
Unless one believes that, say, a coyote became proficient in the use of tranquilizer guns and scalpels, "common predators" can be ruled out. And even Wile E. Coyote wasn't proficient with tools and explosives.
And does anyone seriously believe that a predator would decline to eat the vast amounts of prime rib, beef, and sirloin that a cow offers in favor of tongues and anuses?
If even scavengers and carrion-eaters refused to touch the deceased cattle, we can reasonably assume something is awry.
What that may be, I don't claim to know.
But it would behove us to find out.”
