New Cattle Mutilation in Harney County, Oregon!
DISCLAIMER: Blog contains graphic pictures.
On April 3rd I caught wind there may have been another cattle mutilation in Oregon from a resident Oregon source. After a couple of days of pestering the source numerous times for more information and going no where, I decided to go old-school and search for the mutilation location myself.

My experience as a seasoned animal mutilation investigator told me to start researching counties in Oregon which had animal mutilations in the past. I know from experience that areas where mutilations had occurred previously may get hit again. I’ve worked with ranchers who have been hit multiple times, so I know this was a good place to start.
I started calling Sheriff’s departments in those counties who’ve had mute cases in the past, and speaking with their dispatcher’s, asking questions, leaving messages, and poking around to see if there were any recent case reports which involved an animal’s death. I finally had an opportunity to speak with Harney County Sheriff, Dan Jenkins, who had dealt with mutilations in the past when he was a deputy. I thought his county was the likely county the mutilation occurred because of their previous mutilation history. Before I had a chance to speak with the Sheriff, I found out through case report inquiries, that indeed a case report was filed on a deceased cow in Harney County. Once the case report was located and I had the number, I requested a copy. I received the report on the morning of April 11th, eight days after I first heard of the mutilation.
Eight days later? These things are getting harder to track down!
Once I had the case report, I was able to research and track down the rancher and his phone number. So on April 11th, 1:25pm, I connected with the rancher.
The following information will not include the rancher’s name, the case report number, nor the exact location of the mutilation. This is to protect the rancher and the on-going investigation.
March 2023 Harney County Cattle Mutilation Case:
The following information is from the rancher’s interview and Sheriff’s Department Case report.
On Thursday, March 30th, 2023, the ranchers (names on file), found their healthy, five-to six-year-old, “Heredford X” breed cow, lying dead on its right side. They had left the ranch the day before around 2:30pm and returned on the 30th finding the carcass.
The animal mutilation happened overnight.
The ranchers drove their side-by-side ATV up to the animal and noticed immediately that the death was suspicious. Being experienced ranchers, they knew what they were looking at and it had all the characteristics of a cattle mutilation phenomenon. They made the decision not to approach the carcass and call the authorities.
The Deputy who was called to the scene (name on file) walked around the carcass in a wide circle looking for any evidence of human or animal intervention. No human footprints nor vehicle tire prints were found, only coyote tracks were found outside the immediate area.

Upon examination both the deputy and rancher saw precise, surgical type cuts on the animal.
The animal was lying on its right side, the left side of the face and lower jaw had been skinned with what appeared to be a very sharp precision instrument. The animal’s tongue had been removed from deep down into the throat area and was missing. There was a large hole cored out in the chest area near the inside of the left front leg. It was undetermined if any internal organs were missing. The cow’s udder had been precisely removed and was also missing. The anal area had also been cored out too!

The deputy on scene used a metal detector looking for bullets in or near the carcass but nothing was found. There was no evidence how the animal was killed. There was fluid coloration on the soil near the animal, which is most likely due to drainage of body fluids and scavengers. On an average there’s around 10 gallons of blood in a large cow, so if attacked by a predator, there would be massive amounts of blood on the hide. No blood splattering was seen on the hide.

After interviewing the ranchers, they said the animal appeared to have been dropped. There were no signs the animal struggled to survive, no scuff marks left in the soil from the head, legs or hooves moving. It just appeared to have been placed at that location. There were minor signs of scavenging which I’ve seen on many cases, so the myth that scavengers won’t touch a mutilated animal is not true.
Also, from time-to-time while interviewing ranchers, I hear something new. The rancher said, there was internal stomach matter everywhere inside the chest cavity. If internal organs like the heart and lungs were taken, then they would leave a void or space in the chest cavity. The force of the animal being placed back down onto the ground where it was found, could have caused stomach matter to be pushed into the chest cavity. This is a clear indication of internal force trauma not associated with any type of predator action.
My theory is, a high energy source was responsible for taking and returning the animal. I’ve picked up high levels of EMF (electromagnetic fields) not only near some of my previous cases, but sometimes on the animal itself. Remember, EMF is high frequency radiation. I’ve never picked up high levels of radiation that could harm humans but have recorded higher than normal levels of EMF. A high energy source theory not only satisfies the reason for higher levels of EMF found at the mute site and sometimes on the animal, but also why there are never any markings on the carcass pertaining to some type of transporting system like straps or cables.
The animal mutilation scenario goes something like this:
The animal is taken (Picked up?) at location A. Then the animal is taken to location B where it is drained of blood and precise incisions are made. Then the animal is placed not dropped, at location C which is in the general area of location A.
I know the animal has its blood drained first before incisions are made because samples I’ve taken from previous mutilations, show no signs of hemorrhaging. Meaning no indication the animal was alive when it was cut up. Also, I know the animal was put back near location A because I’ve investigated two cases where I found where the animal was picked up! As for location B? Well, that’s a mystery but my guess is the animal is put back down from a height.
NOT DROPPED!
Why not dropped? Because even dropping a 1000-pound animal just a few inches will show head and leg movements in the soil. Every one of my cases show no movement at all. Now here’s the kicker!
I think the dead animal’s carcass is placed back on the ground with a high energy source because of the high levels of electromagnetic fields I’ve measured on previous cases. Also, a few cases that I’ve done, internal bones have been shattered or broken, but no signs the ground caused the breakage due to being dropped.
Guess what? With this mutilation case, the rear femur bone was snapped out of the pelvic bone. Snapped off at the joint! Do you know how hard it is to snap a cow’s femur at the pelvic without showing any evidence how it happened? This animal’s femur was probably pulled when the carcass was forcibly placed back down on the ground.
Some more interesting information:
Two weeks before the mutilation occurred in March, the rancher while in the house, noticed flashes of bright light about a mile away through their 6×6 foot picture window. The flashes were quite bright even though they appeared to be far away. These types of flashes have never been seen before by the ranchers. Also, around the time of the mutilation, the ranchers noticed their cows had sectioned off into three very tight circular groups. Their behaver was definitely not normal, almost as if they were trying to protect themselves? From what?
By the way, some of the animal mutilation investigations I have done, the ranchers have seen Balls of Light around the time of the mutilation, probably the same type of light this rancher saw.
One other thing I would like to also mention, this was the second mutilation case the rancher has had. The first case was in the mid 1970’s during the period where at least eleven other states in the Midwest were reporting cattle mutilations. Colorado’s newspaper, The Denver Post, actually put out a $13,000 reward to find the culprit and even the FBI was called into investigate these cases.
FBI.gov “Vault”: Animal/Cattle Mutilation In the mid-1970s.
Reports of scattered animal mutilations in western and mid-western states concerned many people. The FBI was asked to investigate, but was unable to do so because of a lack of jurisdiction (except when such mutilations were found on Indian lands).
Not only were ranchers reporting mutilated cows, but Native Americans on their tribal lands were reporting them too! And this is not new to the Native Americans, animal mutilation stories go back in their culture years before Europeans even migrated to the US.
So, who is responsible for Animal Mutilations? Some say Aliens, some even say Bigfoot, but we know it’s not humans because there’s been over 10,000 cases of Animal Mutilations since the Snippy the Horse mutilation near Alamosa, Colorado in September of 1967. That particular mutilation was really the first case to hit the media all over the World. And what about out of those 10,000 cases which law enforcement investigated? They never found the culprit, human or predator evidence pertaining to the mutilations. Just like this one.
These by far are the most unresolved Animal Cruelty cases in the US and are still happening.
