Cow cut, drained in Arborg: Mutilation mystifies

An Arborg cattle farmer made a horrific discovery Monday when he found the partially skinned carcass of one of his animals that was missing its tongue and apparently drained of its blood. "The whole thing has turned out to be more sinister than I thought," said Yvonne, a neighbour, who examined the mutilated animal. She asked not to have her last name used to protect her family.

Gordon, who would only allow The Sun to print his first name, said he discovered the carcass on his farm Monday afternoon.

"I don't really want to speculate on what happened. I know what I saw," he said, adding he is still shaken up by the find.

The mutilation happened Saturday or Sunday night, Gordon said. No one heard anything.

He's heard of several cow mutilations in the area over the past few years, Gordon said.

He called the RCMP, reporting that the animal had been attacked by a predator. He has since changed his mind about the cause.

Arborg RCMP Cpl. Glenn Syme said he has never investigated an instance of cattle mutilation. The RCMP did take a call this week about a cow being attacked by a predator, likely from Gordon.

The animal was found with an incision under its chin. The skin had been pulled from the face, exposing the teeth.

"It's not the gore, we've seen that before, it's the evil behind it," Yvonne said.

The tip of the animal's tongue, cut from its root, was placed in the mouth, she said.

"There's not a drop of blood in that animal. The only way you can drain an animal of blood is (to cut into it) with the heart still pumping," Yvonne said.

"You don't know who you're dealing with ... the average wild and woolly neighbourhood brat wouldn't be capable of doing it," she said.

Gordon and Yvonne called Fern Belzil, an Alberta-based investigator of unexplained deaths who has been studying cow mutilations for eight years, for help.

"I'm not saying it's aliens ... a lot points towards aliens but there is no proof," he said.

Belzil said he has never encountered any evidence pointing to who or what is killing cows.

Thanks. Will check it out.

TIM GOOD'S UNEARTHLY DISCLOSURE had a long section on cattle mutilations.

Let me see if I can quote a bit here . . . a lot to type and it's too marked up for the scanner . . . let me see . .

[Review/commentary of excerpt of Timothy Good’s UNEARTHLY DISCLOSURE]

MILITARY INVOLVEMENT

On many occasions helicopters have been observed in the areas where livestock mutilations occur, typically before or after, but apparently never during, the event. For two years, starting in August 1991, Ted Oliphant III, a documentary reporter, former patrolman and criminal investigator with the police department of Fyffe, Alabama, assisted in investigating 35 cases of cattle mutilation in northern Alabama, a state which has seen large numbers of mutilations. 'Among those law enforcement agents who have thoroughly investigated these bovine excision sites, there is a consensus that some kind of medical testing is going on,' says Oliphant. 'The additional presence of helicopters on scene, before and after cattle are found dead and missing specific organs, leads both victimized farmers and investigating officers to conclude that there is a connection.'

On 9 January 1993 Chief Detective Tommy Cole of the Albertville police department lost a Black Angus steer to mutilators. The previous day his wife had seen an 'unmarked' helicopter over their pasture. (Military helicopters are often painted very dark, with subdued, low-contrast markings,
impossible to see unless one is close.) A Federal Aviation Administration investigator was called in by Cole to investigate this and other helicopter sightings, and Cole took him for a ride in his police car, reports Oliphant.

The FAA investigator was skeptical untill an unmarked helicopter flew near them. [He] couldn't believe his own eyes and pulled out a hand-held radio and hailed the helicopter. The helicopter pilot didn't respond and ignored demands that he identify himself.

This infuriated the FAA investigator, who had now reversed his skepticism. He was able to trace the helicopter to Maxwell Air
Force Base in southern Alabama. When he launched an inquiry at the base, he was immediately told to drop it and never talk about it again.

A week later the FAA investigator called Cole to tell him that while out on nearby Lake Guntersville in a boat, he and his family had seen a large, triangular-shaped craft manoeuvring above them.

Through" a confidential source, identified as 'Phil', Oliphant claims to have been given inside information about military involvement in the cattle mutilations. There is a connection, Phil learned, with Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), or 'Mad Cow Disease', and the related Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), which affects humans. 'It was Phil's idea that I research Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies and their connection to the investigations I carried out as a police officer in 1992 and 1993,' writes Oliphant.

When I checked out his statements, I found they fit in with several leftover pieces from the official investigations carried out by the Alabama State Troopers, the Albertville Police Department and myself.

In 1993, Phil told me that some of the helicopters we were seeing were equipped with thermographic infrared scanners [which] allow pilots to see in the dark and fog. Every living or moving thing produces a heat signature . . . When a cow is in trouble, sick or dying, the first thing it experiences is peripheral circulatory shutdown. This causes an immediate temperature reduction of the animal's outside skin. When a helicopter flies low and slow over area pastures and has the infrared scanner operating, it will notice a cow with a lower thermographic reading than the others in the herd. Find the cold cow, and you've identified.) a cow in trouble.

Phil claimed that, in addition to a public—and a private-funded group studying Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies, there was a government group funded by the 'black budget'. This group supposedly is behind most the animal mutilations. ‘I don't pretend to explain every bovine excision case that’s occurred across the country,' says Ted Oliphant. 'I can only speak of those cases where I was directly involved in on-site investigations, working as a police officer.
[new para break Qx inserted]
In 90 of the cases we investigated, helicopters were reported seen over the affected pastures the day before or after suspicious livestock deaths occurred.

Because of the foreign substances found at the scene and in the bloodstreams of the animals, we (farmers and cops alike) suspected at the time that there was some kind of medical testing being performed.'19

That military (and sometimes apparently civilian) helicopters often appear at the sites of livestock mutilations is beyond contention. Clandestine investigations into BSE and CJD is a possibility, as is sampling of livestock tissue to test for levels of nuclear contamination. David Perkins, who has been researching the phenomenon for 25 years, discovered a high correlation between where the cows were being mutilated and the proximity of those mutilations to nuclear waste or reactor sites, for instance, but he is not persuaded that all the mutilations can be explained this way.20

As Oliphant and others point out, helicopters are seen only before, or after, but never during the mutilations. How could personnel perform the rapid draining of the animal's blood (exsanguination), immaculate excisions and removal of organs without leaving some trace? Furthermore, if the military is targeting sick cows, why are most of those mutilated found in previous good health?

Assuming, as I do, that aliens are responsible for genuine mutilations, what role is played by the helicopters? 'Jim Evans', a former US Air Force security officer whose ranch, close to a US Air Force base in Colorado, had been plagued by livestock mutilations in the mid-1970s, believes he has the answer. 'I figured out early in the game', he said, 'that the government is sending in helicopters in large numbers from several sources, but they are doing it to cover what is really happening.’21

ASSOCIATED PHENOMENA
At about 17.30 on 13 September 1994, during a wave of livestock mutilations in New Mexico, Colorado and Nevada, Larry Gardea was checking a herd of cattle belonging to Estevan Sanchez, in Luna Canyon, near Las Vegas, north-east New Mexico, when he heard a loud, dull hum, 'like a transformer, or the sound an arc welder makes'. The cows began running away from the noise, but Gardea noticed that there appeared to be pulled by an invisible 'beam' towards the sound. ‘They were struggling and bawling and were pulled through the trees,’ said Gardea. ‘I shot at the beam with a 30.06 rifle and the hum stopped and the cows stopped bawling.’

There is another curious aspect to the phenomenon. ‘Often,’ reports Belzil, ‘whoever does this will come back and cut up the same animal two or three times.’ In September 1995, a farmer in northern Saskatchewan called Belzil to report a dead cow 500 yards from his house. Although the animal had not been mutilated, the farmer suspected that it soon would be. Belzil and an assistant installed a light on top of a pole and an outdoor video camera that fed a wireless signal to a video camera recorder, loaded with a ten-hour videotape, in the farmhouse. After watching the monitor for a few hours, Belzil and his colleague headed home. Over the ensuing few days the camera worked perfectly, with the exception of two night-time incidents when, inexplicably, the screen ‘whited out’ for [p257]: about 12 minutes at a time. On both occasions the cow was mutilated; the cow's tongue and half her face sliced away the first time, her anus excised the second time. 'Everything would be going along fine and - bang!' Belzil explained. 'The tape would be totally overexposed. There were no fluctuations; it was like someone was shining a 1000-watt light into the camera. I slowed the tape right down and the change [in the light] is still instant, bang! It's unexplainable . . . ‘23

ALIEN INVOLVEMENT

‘Jim Evans’, mentioned earlier, is adamant that aliens were responsible for the livestock mutilations on his ranch. ‘They are being lifted into the air, they are being drained of blood, they are being mutilated, and they are being lowered,’ he declared.’24 They are not always lowered. David Perkins reports that, judging from bone fractures, some cattle appear to have been dropped from as high as 1000 feet.’25

In Alien Base I reveal an extraordinary mutilation case that occurred in Puerto Rico, the initial stages of which were witnessed by a security guard and former police officer, ‘Piedro Viera’, who recounted to Jorge Martin and me that while driving in thye small hours of 12 January 1997 he had seen a large circular object coming from the direction of the El Yunque Rain Forest, then hovering above some cows in a pasture. A blue-green conical beam of light came down from the craft and engulfed two of the cows, one of which was ‘levitated’ towards the craft. ‘The cow vanished suddenly when it was about five feet from the underside,’ Viera told us. ‘Then the craft began to move away slowly.’ Viera was about to follow the disc in his truck when a black 4 X 4 pickup came along and two men, dressed in black ‘military-style’ clothes (more commonly worn by law enforcement personnel), ordered him to stay where he was for at least 10 minutes. The men returned to their pickup and followed the craft. After 15 minutes Viera set off. He soon came across a cow lying on the side of the road, identical to the one levitated aboard the craft. ‘It had apparently been dropped from above,’ he explained, ‘because two of its legs were badly broken.’ The cow had also been mutilated.’26 . . .

I believe Good’s often good research and objective perspective shows well in these passages. And, his thorough research into a variety of sources, examples and where fitting, explanations is also visible. I find these sources and stories quite convincing.

I’m skeptical of the BSE CJD and nuclear research motives being the total explanation by quite a margin. But who knows.

I’m convinced that ET’s and the government share considerable cooperative and perhaps antagonistic complicity in the phenomenon.

The rest of this Good book has a wealth of other examples of ET and government related stories. A sizeable portion is spent on Puerto Rico’s extensive history of UFO’s and ET stories.

I encourage anyone interested in the topic to read the book. It’s well worth the time and money. I would consider it a must for those building a credible UFO library.
