How can the cattle massacres with surgical precision be explained?

If you'd like one plausible reason/answer IMO...the government has run secret tests on cows or other animals to research bacterial or germ warfare so they use special military noiseless helicopters to grab cows, sheep, goats , etc.. and dissect them for various organs using lasers or high temp cauterizing knives, drain blood, etc..and leave the mutilated bodies behind ...hoping that people will assign it to aliens. That was the premise of a 1982 movie called Endangered Species with Robert Urich and JoBeth Williams. Actually a pretty good movie and plot. Most people are unaware of top secret germ warfare research that has gone on for decades in the US and such research is highly classified. Some of the scientists that ran the notorious Unit 731 in Japan during the war had come to the US to continue research. They may want to get animals from ranches and farmers rather than keep a stock of animals which could be investigated....or use animals with other genetics, etc..

Some people have also asserted that the UFO/aliens phenomena or some UFO sightings which are indeed credible out of the many which aren't are due to top secret military tests of advanced aircraft or antigravity designs that has been going on since the end of WW II. The UFO craze is the perfect cover story and a plausible, compartmentalized deception campaign run by the government/CIA... people want to believe in aliens visiting earth. If you want to hide top secret and possibly illegal research then get people to think it's due to aliens. It appears to have worked quite well.

There is obvious evidence that the cattle were killed. There is ZERO evidence that aliens were involved. Actually, there is no credible evidence that aliens have ever visited Earth. Remember the words of Carl Sagan: Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Dead cows are NOT evidence of alien visitations!

Edit: You need to learn something about a tool of logic called "Occam's Razor" (and no, it's NOT a sharp instrument used to slaughter bovines). In simple terms it says that if one has multiple possible explanations for a phenomenon or effect, you pick the simplest one, that does not involve magical thinking like aliens, UNLESS you have very compelling evidence for another explanation. In this case, the simplest explanations would be either animal attacks or human actions. I repeat, there is ZERO credible evidence for aliens visiting our solar system, EVER! Unless the standard model is seriously flawed, which most physicists think unlikely, it is IMPOSSIBLE for matter of any kind to reach or exceed the speed of light. If you look at the amount of energy required to reach even a significant fraction of the speed of light, that is impossible too! Therefore, interstellar travel is probably impossible, now or ever.

Well, for starters, one could simply make it up, or a series of copycat stories of a decidedly less than faithful retelling of stories of cattle which were actually killed/mutilated by decidedly mundane means. This would explain why there doesn't seem to be any evidence that this is actually happening except for anecdotal lore circulated among flying saucer enthusiasts. It wouldn't be the first time one of their stories turned out to be 100% apocryphal.

What the hell would an extraterrestrial species want with that many cattle organs? Is there any actual evidence that this is actually occurring apart from unverifiable anecdotes circulated on websites opposed to critical thinking?

Edit: the pictures which do exist depict dead cows, but don't really seem to reflect the whole assertion of anything remarkable. The eyewitnesses are what I referred to when I said, "Unverifiable anecdotes." I don't dispute that things mutilate cows (particularly after they die). I do dispute that the mutilations which actually do seem to occur are in any way remarkable, since the insistences as such on part of the flying saucer woo-woos seem to be entirely arbitrary.

Documentation exists where the Texas State Police did a study of the effects of blow flies and other scavengers chronologically timing disturbances of dead cattle carcasses. The natural scavengers removal of organs and tissue matched reports of human or extraterrestrial rumored 'mutilations'.

I myself traveled in a party of people my age, one insisting that one of his cows had been "mutilated" with a great range of description of the dead animal.

Arriving at the site, Yes: the coyotes had removed the soft genitals and soft surrounding tissues as they always do. Yes: they had removed the tip of the tongue, or the cow had bit it off herself in her last moments. The tip of the tail ...was gone but somehow it had managed to grow skin back on the tip overnight just like a much older injury. Yes; there was a nipple gone but it had an healed over much as a common wound.

But there is my favorite part of the event; looking at the cow ...it did appear as stated that an eyeball had be removed...but in a group of multiple people , most with argricultural backgrounds not an individual there strode up to the dead cow bent over to draw the eyelids apart. And Peak-A-Boo! See if there was actually a remaining eyeball in there or not?

...Nor did an individual come up with the idea of such a large group could grab the dead beast and roll it over to see if the

Earthward eye was still there and intact?

There may be pictures and videos and eyewitnesses to the animals.

But none of that PROVES it was aliens. All it proves is the mutilations happened.

Yes, it could have been aliens.

But it could also have been humans (read about the crop circles for the things people do for a lark).

It could have been terrorists.

It could have been people with a craving for certain organs.

"who else would have the motive" - sorry, that is not PROOF it was aliens.

First off, if you're watching "Ancient Aliens", you're getting your facts from the WRONG place. The ONLY reason they run this crap is to boost their ratings because gullible and uneducated people watch it.. Georgio Toucanlips and Bull Birnes are a couple of idiots who make a fortune on TV at YOUR expense. I suppose you're also gullible enough to believe a race smart enough to travel the galaxy and sneak up on us would forget to turn their blinking lights off, doodle crop circles, and stack blocks for pyramids. Use a tad bit of common sense.

Edit: I hate to burst your bubble but there is not a drop of evidence. ANY of them can easily have been done by humans. Matter of fact, it's FAR more logical that humans did it rather than believing something traveled half way across the galaxy to bother with such nonsense. GET A CLUE! You slept through grade school? We have had laser technology for over 50 years Forrest. Where is the evidence aliens did this?

Maybe they like Prairie Oysters. You'd think that the aliens would've figured out how cattle work by now.

Note, all the "surgical cuts" are areas that tend to be consumed by insects first and we now use some insects in medicine and forensics because they are more precise than surgery.

With surgical tools?

I think it is more likely a pagan religious cult that offers livestock organs as offerings to their deities, maybe burnt offerings as well. Could easily be a local Earth-based cult, and I'll bet that Georgio Dopydopulous isn't even proposing that it could be an alien religious cult, which is a pity, because he sees aliens in everything around him and would have been an entertaining "explanation".

Sure there's evidence of mutilated cows. Lot's 'O dead cows. Only a complete idiot would leap to the conclusion that it must be space aliens. Some guy with a sharp knife and a reason is all it takes.

It is debunked by observing that the TV show in question is a load of rubbish designed to maximise audiences, and hence advertising revenue, with no reference to facts.
