Disturbing cow mutilation evokes past Montana mysteries | greatfallstribune.com | Great Falls Tribune

Disturbing cow mutilation evokes past Montana mysteries | greatfallstribune.com | Great Falls Tribune: "There were just a few drops of blood around the cow — hardly what was expected considering the tongue and udder were removed and the flesh and tissue scraped clean to the bone.

In the days before its death, the cow showed no signs of being sick. The tongue and udder looked like they had been cut with precision — not ripped as a predator would do.

'I reached out to everybody I know to try to get an explanation,' Meagher County Sheriff Jon Lopp said. 'Everybody's got a theory — from insects to UFOs. I've actually read a lot about it. I'm still as confused as I was when I started.'

Though this incident was the first time Lopp has seen a cow mutilated in such a strange manner, it's been going on elsewhere for decades.

In England, accounts of mutilated cows, horses and goats date back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The first reports in America surfaced in Pennsylvania and Kansas in the 1960s."
