You can't tell by just looking at the ground around a dead animal 48 00:04:52,140 --> 00:04:59,500 Oddly other animals will stay away from the site of the killing and in many cases a thunder and lightning storm reported on 49 00:04:59,500 --> 00:05:01,500 About the date of the event 50 00:05:02,740 --> 00:05:10,740 While these deaths occur in remote canyons or hillsides away from prying eyes the events are not restricted to domestic pastures 51 00:05:11,220 --> 00:05:14,820 The animal mutilation phenomenon really is a global issue 52 00:05:15,100 --> 00:05:20,460 When you go out into the world you realize that just like in the United States 53 00:05:20,460 --> 00:05:25,580 There are hot spots and they have been the same repetitive hot spots for 50 60 years 54 00:05:25,700 --> 00:05:29,140 Maybe this has been going on for millions of years and we just caught on 55 00:05:30,380 --> 00:05:35,140 The long history of cattle mutilations has still another unusual element 56 00:05:36,900 --> 00:05:41,340 The presence of unidentified flying objects UFO 57 00:05:43,340 --> 00:05:50,040 Perhaps the earliest written document on the subject is a newspaper article and sworn affidavit that involved a cow a 58 00:05:50,580 --> 00:05:55,500 politician and a UFO in a story that predated the 20th century 59 00:05:56,460 --> 00:05:58,460 well back in 60 00:05:58,460 --> 00:06:03,340 2007 was probably the earliest recorded case of a cattle mutilation 61 00:06:03,580 --> 00:06:09,340 Alexander Hamilton a member of the House of Representatives in Kansas reported that a 300 foot long 62 00:06:10,020 --> 00:06:12,020 cylindrical object landed in his farm 63 00:06:13,460 --> 00:06:19,180 Picked up a one of his cattle and abducted it one thing that the politicians need is a good reputation 64 00:06:19,180 --> 00:06:25,660 I truly believe this is an actual case. I think this was probably the first verifiable story of 65 00:06:26,060 --> 00:06:27,220 a 66 00:06:27,220 --> 00:06:29,220 abduction 67 00:06:29,420 --> 00:06:31,420 Mulation case 68 00:06:31,540 --> 00:06:37,300 Well, it turns out that mr. Hamilton was a member of a Liars Club and this he later cheerfully admitted 69 00:06:37,300 --> 00:06:39,620 This was just a tall tale that he made up 70 00:06:41,220 --> 00:06:47,040 Whether the story is true or not clearly the subject was publicly discussed before the 1900s 71 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:56,920 Fifty years before Roswell and the sci-fi movie craze that filled our modern minds with images of UFOs 72 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:03,240 Cattle horses sheep and other animals may have been mutilated as well 73 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:08,080 But were overlooked because the phenomena was not defined or communicated publicly 74 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:17,000 Well, there wasn't any mention I'm aware of in the in the really in the first half of the 20th century 75 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:23,480 I think the first case that we really know about is the 1967 case in Alamosa, Colorado 76 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,160 Snippy was the 77 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:30,040 Press's term for the horse the horse's actual name was lady 78 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:36,200 They in their effort to get the facts straight got the horse's name wrong 79 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:41,120 but Snippy was found in the middle of the field by by her owners and 80 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:46,000 Had all the classic signs the symptoms of a catamillation once again had 81 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,680 Surgical precise type cuts that were found 82 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:54,120 There's no tracks or footprints found anywhere the sheriff's office 83 00:07:54,560 --> 00:08:00,680 Investigated this and they could not come to conclusion one way or the other what it was and to this day 84 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,680 It's an unsolved case 85 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,600 Over the years one key element of evidence was eerily similar 86 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:11,960 So 87 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:20,600 With the mutilations being strange you have even higher strangeness of 88 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:27,680 huge sounds and nothing there or complete silence with what looks like helicopters 89 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,600 Well, I think people are 90 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,720 Seeing something in the sky while this is happening 91 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,440 beforehand people will hear 92 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:47,680 Loud noises that they describe as being similar to a jet aircraft engine sometimes. It's so loud with their whole house vibrates 93 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,480 Other people are seeing a bright orange lights in the sky 94 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:58,640 So we really don't know what we're dealing with but this is a very common part of the cow mutilation case 95 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,160 Is that you'll get reports of UFOs in the area? 96 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,280 Such was the case in Farnham 97 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:12,560 Residents started to share stories of unusual sights and sounds on the night the Juergens cow was killed 98 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:19,760 The rancher turned to the internet looking for information he found Linda molten how 99 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:27,680 If I'll often get a fax or an email or a phone call either from a rancher directly or for somebody who says we 100 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:34,720 Read about your work and here's a dead animal and that's what happened with the Larry Juergens ranch in Farnham, Nebraska 101 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:44,840 She knows what clues to look for and how to acquire the forensic evidence to understand cattle mutilations and 102 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:51,140 This rancher is counting on her to figure out who or what did this to his cow 103 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:58,600 When we return how attempts to unravel the murder mystery on the Juergens ranch 104 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,520 You 105 00:10:13,680 --> 00:10:21,880 Cattle mutilation expert Linda how arrived at the ranch in Farnham, Nebraska to begin the investigation of the unusual death of Larry Juergens cow 106 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:32,600 The location was remote and hard to access but once there how approached slowly making preliminary observations through the lens of her camera 107 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:43,400 I am on a north south axis with this animal one of the interesting things is this is a 108 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,640 360 degree 109 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,560 Surrounded by hills whatever happened in here 110 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,560 It could operate without anybody seeing 111 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,160 She was looking for the classic indications of an authentic mutilation 112 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:09,640 As she stepped around fairly fresh cow dung indicating the herd had been there a few days ago 113 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:14,120 She noted the far distance being maintained by other cattle at the time 114 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:22,160 Further documentation was made of the area and the orientation of the body the cow laid dead for nearly a week 115 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,400 Then she went in for a closer look 116 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:34,000 The ears are intact so this one is one of the few in which the ear is not taken 117 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:41,000 You can tell even now with the collapse of the body in 118 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,560 Death that this was a very large healthy 119 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,280 Animal and she had given birth to a calf 120 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,440 That had grown to 400 pounds so she was a very healthy 121 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,040 animal 122 00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:01,040 Despite days of decay and maggot infestation there were no body parts or organs strewn about 123 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,320 In a manner typically found when predators or scavengers strike 124 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,640 The remote settings surgical precision 125 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:17,280 Absence of evidence no claims of responsibility and the huge geographic area covered over decades have led some researchers to 126 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,760 extraordinary conclusions 127 00:12:20,680 --> 00:12:29,360 Well some people do make the connection that this is a extraterrestrial event and really there's no evidence one way or the other 128 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,480 There's but then there's no evidence that humans are involved in this either 129 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,560 However, they do see UFOs in the area and 130 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:44,840 Leads a lot of us to come to conclusions that this could possibly be aliens involved 131 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:59,080 Does our government have these craft and if they have the craft do they have hard proof 132 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:04,600 That that which is in the craft is involved with the animal mutilations 133 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:11,640 If they exist UFOs could account for the rumblings herd and the light seen in the sky 134 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,920 Or even the cattle mutilations by 135 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,080 1989 I had become personally convinced 136 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:27,800 That extraterrestrial biological entities or something from outer space being involved that this was in fact the story a 137 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:34,480 Story that tells of spaceships that may have the technology to levitate cows up to the craft 138 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,080 perform the surgical excisions 139 00:13:40,560 --> 00:13:46,880 And then let them plummet to the earth and when you find that the cow had dropped on its mother 140 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:54,120 Its muscles it's consistent with people who said they've seen animals drop from glowing discs in the sky to the ground 141 00:13:55,840 --> 00:14:03,840 Would aliens possess the technology capable of performing bloodless surgery with precision a process that humans would have trouble carrying out 142 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,880 Most of the cases that we find the cause of death is 143 00:14:10,560 --> 00:14:11,640 exanguination 144 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,640 complete loss of blood 145 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,480 We don't have the surgical equipment that takes to do that kind of thing 146 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,560 The kind of vacuum that would require to do that's just not available 147 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,600 Even at hospitals alone in the field 148 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:33,480 But even if extraterrestrials had the ability to conduct this long-term killing spree is there a motivation? 149 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,000 Some people say that the ETS 150 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,920 motivation behind this is 151 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:45,640 genetics 152 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:51,840 That they're involved in our DNA and cattle DNA is very similar to humans 153 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:05,480 This suggests that aliens are harvesting bovine biology as part of a mission that serves some greater galactic purpose 154 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:10,760 One that is well beyond human understanding and is vital to alien survival 155 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:16,800 They can use that genetic manipulation to fill in the it's not quite Jurassic Park 156 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:21,600 Where you're skipping a few genetic codes to get to the dinosaurs from the amphibians as they did in that film 157 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:25,520 But they do have unbelievable high technology when it comes to 158 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:33,680 Genetic mentality so they can use cattle for their research and some times to fill in the gaps that they don't have enough human DNA for 159 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:39,280 also that human blood is transferable with cattle blood in emergencies, so 160 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:48,200 There's enough similarity between us and the bovine to make me believe that there's some sort of research being done on our DNA 161 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:55,800 The idea of aliens collecting blood from cows in order to extract DNA for some unfathomable genetic research 162 00:15:55,960 --> 00:16:03,000 Easily attract skeptics that extraterrestrials are doing animal mutilations is the least likely explanation 163 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:10,120 Within veterinary circles such theories may sound a bit too alien to be scientifically grounded 164 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:18,760 I'm not aware of that at all that there's that much similarity between human and and bovine blood 165 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:24,960 A human has 46 chromosomes a cow has 60 chromosomes 166 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:32,440 So there's a there's a difference right there. Are they that closely related?

Wc Levengood at the Pinelandia 348 00:34:19,140 --> 00:34:24,060 Biophysics Lab in Michigan to review his findings of the soil samples she collected in Farnham 349 00:34:27,100 --> 00:34:31,180 He's looking for microscopic balls of black magnetite and iron oxide 350 00:34:32,460 --> 00:34:35,980 And the reddish fears of an iron ore called hematite 351 00:34:36,260 --> 00:34:40,340 Which are frequently found in high concentration at cattle mutilation sites 352 00:34:42,700 --> 00:34:45,300 This is magnetic drag material from the farm 353 00:34:46,300 --> 00:34:50,420 And the main thing here is you'll see that the 354 00:34:51,340 --> 00:34:57,180 tiny tiny magnetite and hematite particles are extremely small 355 00:34:57,980 --> 00:35:02,340 From five to 20 microns in diameter, which is very small 356 00:35:03,340 --> 00:35:09,620 Some cases we get up 30 40 microns, but this particular sample is just these tiny particles 357 00:35:11,100 --> 00:35:17,100 Strewing all over the soil so we do have magnetite from the mutilation site of Farnham 358 00:35:18,060 --> 00:35:20,060 Yes, yeah 359 00:35:22,700 --> 00:35:25,660 Magnetite can be found in the meteoric dust floating in space 360 00:35:26,540 --> 00:35:34,100 Dr. Levengood suggests that it can get mixed into plasma energy like the aurora borealis commonly known as the northern lights 361 00:35:38,500 --> 00:35:44,500 This occurs way up in the ionosphere about 60 to 100 miles above the earth 362 00:35:46,740 --> 00:35:53,760 These are self-organized energies that form what we call plasma vortices 363 00:35:55,660 --> 00:35:58,820 These atmospheric anomalies can swirl around so quickly 364 00:36:00,020 --> 00:36:04,540 That like a tornado they can spin to earth and pull the magnetite with it 365 00:36:04,660 --> 00:36:09,860 This spiral of energy may explain how the increased density of magnetite gets on the ground 366 00:36:12,060 --> 00:36:18,340 We're not talking about an energy that produces the bovine excision 367 00:36:18,380 --> 00:36:21,220 We're talking about a number of 368 00:36:21,740 --> 00:36:25,980 Interacting energies what we call in science boundary conditions 369 00:36:29,300 --> 00:36:35,260 Linda Howe's explanation is that extraterrestrial technology targets these plasma energies at cattle 370 00:36:37,380 --> 00:36:40,780 And what we're looking at in this microscope in a way is 371 00:36:41,300 --> 00:36:46,940 Kind of like the trail the connection between that energy in the upper atmosphere 372 00:36:47,100 --> 00:36:50,820 That has come down and done something to this grass and to this soil 373 00:36:51,660 --> 00:36:53,060 that 374 00:36:53,060 --> 00:36:59,600 The magnetite is like proof of some unusual interaction. It's it's a it's a strong indication. Yes 375 00:37:03,140 --> 00:37:10,460 Dr. Levengood also analyzed the grass samples and calculated subtle changes in the growth patterns caused by undetermined energies 376 00:37:13,700 --> 00:37:15,500 In Farnham 377 00:37:15,500 --> 00:37:21,220 What you have found the red and the blue is that some energy is destructive 378 00:37:22,340 --> 00:37:31,180 And some energy is actually accelerating growth. That's correct. Yeah, and and they need part of it is on this method 379 00:37:32,540 --> 00:37:37,660 What what we can do is we know that the way this energy 380 00:37:37,860 --> 00:37:43,460 Changes with time in the grass follows a very precise mathematical function 381 00:37:44,420 --> 00:37:49,420 So we can apply that function and see what this is actually metabolizing normally or not 382 00:37:54,540 --> 00:38:00,700 Dr. Levengood's analysis indicated Linda's grass samples were taken in a circular pattern around the cow 383 00:38:04,100 --> 00:38:06,300 This one is the one 384 00:38:07,140 --> 00:38:09,140 taken at the west end and 385 00:38:09,420 --> 00:38:14,100 It follows it but notice how the slope it's very almost flat 386 00:38:14,980 --> 00:38:21,740 But of the animal it still follows that it's still metabolizing grass and this is the one taken 387 00:38:23,900 --> 00:38:29,100 Showing the very high energy input and you can see the difference in the slope of those two 388 00:38:29,620 --> 00:38:35,940 This is the one that was north or north that was the one that had the accelerated growth and when 389 00:38:36,620 --> 00:38:43,220 Your data you found that there was a direction and a change in the energy before you've even seen these yeah 390 00:38:44,420 --> 00:38:51,500 Even though dr. Levengood had not seen these images before his findings were consistent with the photographs from the Farnham site 391 00:38:55,980 --> 00:39:00,780 That's where the energy was destructive that's right and the graph is 392 00:39:01,260 --> 00:39:05,940 Related to energy out here. Yeah, I'd be over over in here somewhere 393 00:39:06,300 --> 00:39:10,100 Suggesting that something came in from the Northwest. Yeah, right 394 00:39:12,060 --> 00:39:16,460 Unbeknownst to dr. Levengood this is a significant conclusion because 395 00:39:17,700 --> 00:39:24,300 The witnesses to the strange lights and rumbling sounds also describe the direction of flight from the Northwest 396 00:39:31,780 --> 00:39:40,660 This height sample removed from Larry Juergens mutilated cow featured two small holes that how believes indicate surgical access to the cows heart area 397 00:39:43,540 --> 00:39:51,180 The specimen was examined by the chief of pathology of large animals at the University of Pennsylvania's animal diagnostic laboratory 398 00:39:52,660 --> 00:40:00,740 He wrote a report as honestly as he could and what is so interesting talking with him personally and reading the hard text of his report 399 00:40:01,060 --> 00:40:03,060 He cannot rule out 400 00:40:04,180 --> 00:40:07,580 Thermal influence at that hole cannot rule it out 401 00:40:11,180 --> 00:40:14,860 I've been a pathologist for 27 years. I have not 402 00:40:16,220 --> 00:40:21,140 Posted a cow where I felt there was an unusual 403 00:40:21,940 --> 00:40:27,860 circumstance of why the tongue or the utter or the rectum was removed 404 00:40:28,500 --> 00:40:31,220 That was not explainable by predators 405 00:40:35,700 --> 00:40:40,140 Regardless of the outcome of the laboratory testing this level of forensic investigation 406 00:40:41,060 --> 00:40:48,660 underscores the mysterious circumstances surrounding cattle mutilations and a question of UFO intervention 407 00:40:53,180 --> 00:40:57,620 Our government still stands by the Romer report from 1979 408 00:40:57,860 --> 00:41:02,420 that these abduction cases are nothing more than 409 00:41:02,980 --> 00:41:06,500 Humans being involved or predators being involved 410 00:41:07,100 --> 00:41:10,900 Aliens have nothing to do with it and the government has nothing to do with it 411 00:41:14,340 --> 00:41:16,540 There is really no evidence 412 00:41:17,740 --> 00:41:20,740 That extra terrestrials of any kind 413 00:41:21,700 --> 00:41:24,300 Are involved with animal mutilation? 414 00:41:25,020 --> 00:41:27,460 No evidence no good evidence 415 00:41:28,860 --> 00:41:30,860 In 416 00:41:32,820 --> 00:41:37,140 The final analysis no witness admits to seeing the cow being mutilated 417 00:41:37,620 --> 00:41:42,100 There has been no claim of responsibility from cults pranksters or 418 00:41:43,300 --> 00:41:45,300 Aliens 419 00:41:46,140 --> 00:41:51,100 And there is no hard proof of secret government operations or UFOs 420 00:41:57,860 --> 00:41:59,860 In 421 00:42:04,860 --> 00:42:07,340 Farnam the fact stand 422 00:42:08,900 --> 00:42:10,900 No blood 423 00:42:10,900 --> 00:42:12,900 No tracks and 424 00:42:13,140 --> 00:42:19,460 Two more cows have been added to the growing list of dead animals that some call cattle mutilations 425 00:42:27,860 --> 00:42:29,860 You 426 00:42:57,860 --> 00:43:00,820 You
