- Seven bovines were found mutilated last week in a farm
near Puelches, in Southwestern La Pampa. The information was confirmed
to CEUFO by local cattlemen who expressed their concern at the new incidents
and stated "they did not occur in a single day; rather, they took
place throughout the week" while one woman, a ranch owner, added that
"strange lights were seen maneuvering over the area for several nights
throughout the region."
-
- It should be noted that throughout this area, the presence
of "lights" and "vehicles" is so common that on several
occasion, local residents contacted CEUFO to witness the maneuvers of "strange
vehicles" that are even visible over the area during the daytime hours
a region that is being scourged by a remarkable drought.
-
- The eyewitness accounts include those by police officers
and community authorities of the southern communities, who have come to
consider the phenomenon as folklore.
-
- Cattle mutilations have re-entered the conversations
of livestock producers and residents of various regions of La Pampa and
central Argentina in general.
-
- Every so often, almost cyclically, the subject of mutilated
animals, slain with alarming precision, appears once more in the media,
especially in the nation's heartland. La Pampa takes center stage and
a wide array of comments emerge from discussions at coffeehouses, cattlemen's'
associations, and all the towns in Argentina's central region.
-
- Memories of the "rodents" in the absurd essay
produced by SENASA are a source of amusement among seasoned laborers, knowledgeable
of the strange manifestations in their area. And within this framework,
the term "extraterrestrial" causes an uncomfortable sensation
among those who have witnessed the maneuvers of strange lights in the darkness,
generally associated to the mysterious and unknown.
-
- Long-time rural residents marvel at the precision of
the cuts, and are even more startled that other creatures refuse to approach
animals slain in this fashion. It is only now that carrion animals are
timidly starting to approach a carcass that has lain exposed for ten to
twelve days.
-
- A veteran farmer stated, "The lacerations are not
normal. There are no signs that the animal even tried to fend off an assailant.
Rather, it appears to have fallen asleep on the ground.
-
- An officer of the Cattle Theft Division of the La Pampa
Police has said: "Although no reports are called in when the events
occur, police officers act on their own whenever news of these events becomes
known," adding that "our eyes only look for strictly police-related
material", making it understood that the cases are subsequently reviewed
by experts that are better versed in the subject at senior levels. "They
tend to find details such as the animals' apparent proximity to high voltage
wires, the fact that there are always water deposits nearby, and that some
trees show signs of incisions and other marks."
-
- Within this framework of hundreds of episodes taking
place over a vast central region of the country, some agencies endeavored
to prove that the events were "natural" and blamed the "red-muzzled
mouse", but were unaware that scientists know the region well by virtue
of living in it, and also know all of its nooks and crannies and each species
that occupies them. These scientists vehemently dismissed the laboratory-confected
assays. Finally, the DEFINITIVE report, which was not circulated at all,
was the one furnished to CEUFO by an official with the School of Veterinary
Medicine of the University of La Pampa. After a year of experiments and
comparisons, they ruled that THE INCISIONS WERE MECHANICAL that is
to say, produced by an element having nothing to do with the teeth of rodents
or carrion animals.
-
- In one of many forays conducted by CEUFO in the rural
areas, we obtained an eyewitness account in March 2007 from a cattleman
in the community of Embajador Martini, Province of La Pampa, who added
an interesting fact to be kept in mind within comparative parameters. He
said: "At 14:00 hours, I witnessed a stampede produced by a circular
beam of light, measuring 2 meters in diameter approximately, issued by
an object that traveled at a normal altitude and speed, shaped like two
soup-bowls joined at their edges."
-
- The question arose immediately Was this what caused
the animals to stampede? Was it in any way connected with the mutilations?
-
- We can draw our own conclusions with all of this information.
