Episode 236: Cattle Mutilation: Bovine Conspiracies!

On this episode of The Sofa King Podcast, we break out the tinfoil hats and que the X-Files music as we explore the history of Cattle Mutilation. Cattle Mutilation is a unique event that had a strange surge in the early 1970s in the United States. Cattle ranchers started to report cows that had died under unusual circumstances to local law enforcement agencies. Over 200 such cases were identified in Colorado alone in under two years. It started to cost the ranchers so much money, that US Senators started to petition the FBI to get involved in the case.

So, what is odd about the deaths surrounding Cattle Mutilations? For one things, the animals are typically drained entirely of their blood. There is none on the ground, and there are no footprints where predators could be proven to drink the blood after the fact. Second, they have surgical-like incisions in their skin and even bones, things that could not be made by a predator’s teeth. Third, the removal of certain organs—genitals, eyes, ears, utters, and even heart and lung. This removal, again, is often precise and surgical, not the rough tearing of a predator.

There are other strange things, like pink blood that won’t coagulate, strange mineral deprivations in the blood and tissue, organs with the consistency of peanut butter. The FBI gave an official ruling in 1979 that they were natural deaths, but the ranchers involved don’t believe it. It still happens to this day, and usually includes some sort of scientific anomaly.

Why do the senate letters to the FBI include black helicopters seen on the nights of the Cattle Mutilations? What evidence is there that it could be caused by a satanic cult? Why do people claim it is extraterrestrial in origin? Why do so many of them happen in one geographic area, and what is that area? Listen, laugh, learn.
