- The carcass of an adult guanaco, showing signs of mutilation
on its jaw, anus, ear and one eye, was found this afternoon in the beach
at Punta Pardelas, Valdes Peninsula, on the shores of Golfo Nuevo, 200
km. north of Rawson. Another dead bovine was found, this time in Maria
Grande. In a new cattle mutilation case, the remains of a cow showing
signs of mutilation were found in the community of Maria Grande. The animal
had had its tail sliced off along with its genitalia, masticatory muscles
and tongue. It was further reported that the animal had been dead for
2 or 3 days. Furthermore,the location where this animal was discovered
immediately caused the cattle rustling hypothesis to be discarded, since
such cases are linked to events in which theft for food is involved.
-
- The series of mutilated bovines in the province had written
its first chapter this morning, since an animal showing the same signs
as cases which have turned up in other provinces of the nation was found
today in a pasture of the Diamante region.
-
- As with other animals, bovines from Diamante and Maria
Grande displayed injuries made with surgical precision, missing their tongues
and muscular mass along the jawbone. The Diamantine bovine was found in
a field located near Costa Grande and belongs to Adriana Trossero, as
reported by local veterinarians to the police, who immediately ordered
that analyses be performed on the animal.

- Mutilations Found Near Rawson, Comodora Rivadavia

- As the spate of animal mutilations continues throughout
the country, an adult male guanaco showing signs of mutilation on its jaw,
anus, ear and one eye, was found on the beach at Punta Pardelas on the
Valdes Peninsual, 200 km north of Rawson. The report came from a rural
foreman and was made to the sheriff's office at Puerto Piramide, which
in turn advised the authorities of [the province of] Chubut, who sent
a team of experts from the Provincial Conservation Agency, which has jurisdiction
on this natural reserve. The agency's director, Nestor Garcia, who headed
the delegation, stated that this case is identical to the cow and sheep
mutilations in Rio Negro, La Pampa and the province of Buenos Aires. Garcia
noted that "what is strange is that there are no tracks to be found
in the vicinity, except for the animal's own tracks on the fields during
its last few minutes of life." "I can't determine how long
the animal has been like this, but it could be that it has been longer
than 3 days. This will depend on the autopsy perfomred by the specialists
from the Centro Nacional Patagonico, headquartered at Puerto Madryn, where
we took the carcass," he explained. The official finds it strange
that the "animal was alone and didn't try to escape, which would
be considered logical in the species, which is generally very shy and
avoids human presnece. Nor were carrion animals such as "chimangos"
or "caranchos reported in the area.
