Recent Cattle Mutilation In Southern Colorado Hotspot

Chuck Zukowski at UFOnut.com is reporting a recent cattle mutilation and investigation in the Trinidad, Colorado area. This is another of several animal mutilations in the general location in recent years.

Monday morning August 8th, 2011, Zukowski was contacted by rancher Miller from Trinidad, Colorado. He informed him that one of his cows had been mutilated over the past weekend. Zukowski had investigated one of his previous mutilated cows back on March of 2009. This rancher has had three separate mutilation cases.

Zukowski notes:

Evidence of bloating

Evidence of out-gassing

Rancher’s dog was sick after interacting with carcass day before, but appears fine during investigation.

Samples Taken:

Tissue sample taken along edge of oval hole near anal area

Tissue sample taken along edge of oval hole near utter area

Tissue sample taken along edge of oval hole between front forelegs

Soil sample taken near carcass, test sample taken 50 feet away at similar terrain

Ear tag from missing ear left side

Action Items:

The three tissue samples will be sent to Colorado State University Veterinary Lab, Fort Collins, for analysis.

- Tissue analysis will be determined by samples when received

The soil samples will be sent to a soil analysis lab I work with. (Name on file and not revealed, per lab’s request)

- Soil analysis will be a comparison analysis looking for any differences between the two.

Zukowski's Conclusion:

Unfortunately I was unable to take this animal to the lab for a complete necropsy. There are a few factors which can stand in the way to achieve this. One, time accrued of deceased animal. Two, distance to the lab. Three, proper speciman to achieve complete necropsy for proper analysis.

As information on current mutilation cases become more available to the public, the public in turn, knows who to contact when a new mutilation occurs. This hand-shake of information going back and forth from investigator to the public, will ultimately achieve our goals of finding the evidence we need to resolve these cases.

NOTE: I have to ask the question....are these animal mutilations related in any way to the proximity of Dulce Base and the reported underground passages to this general location? Here are links to previous posts:

Tracking Paranormal Activity at Dublin's Connolly Station

Ghosts have reportedly been seen at Ireland's Connolly Station in Dublin, leading to some Irish ghost hunters claiming they have received multiple reports of strange happenings at the busy train station in the city center.

Perhaps it's not so strange as it sounds, as many commuters found it easy to believe people had died waiting for tardy trains.

Paranormalist Tim Kelly told the Herald that he wants to hear reports from commuters who may have witnessed something strange or startling.

"We've heard that there is poltergeist activity in Connolly Station," Tim told the Herald. "We want to find out what this is all about because it could be huge."

It could be huge, but at the moment it's completely unsubstantiated. Even the plucky Ghost Busters admit they have yet to approach CIE (the Irish train service) and the operators of the station to obtain permission to investigate. But they say they're more than prepared.

"It would take an hour and a half to set up. We have thermal imaging cameras, cutting-edge stuff," Kelly explained. "We go in like the American teams - it's a very technical approach. We'll have four or five cameras on the night," Kelly said.

"Sometimes the human ear can't pick up the voices and they are only audible once recorded on the audio recorders and reviewed," Tim added. - irishcentral

NOTE: there have been several recent sightings starting in January 2011...but historically, there have been rumors of the apparitions since the 1990's when a major rehab was done on the station. I once heard reports of loud 'booming' sounds in and around the station. During WWII, the station did take a direct hit from a German aerial bombardment but it is uncertain if this was a residual of that attack...Lon
