According to police, a cow found mutilated on a farm near the Drayton Valley is not the work of aliens or Satanic cults.
Last month, the Breton RCMP was called in to investigate the discovery of a mutilated cow on a farm near Lyndale.
According to the Breton detachment of the corporal. Ken Zylke, an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death was impossible due to the deteriorating condition of the carcass.
The cow was dead about four days ago and was heavily infested with maggots when police were called to investigate.
According to Zilke, judging by the photos of the carcass taken by two veterinarians, both veterinarians came to the conclusion that the cause of death "was not created by human hands."
He said coyotes usually hunt for the animal's softer tissues, such as udders and genitals. Bloating will also cause the skin around the hole to stretch, causing cuts to be formed by sharp edges, such as a knife.
Six mutilated cows found recently on a farm in the Leduc area are attributed to everything from aliens to Satanic cults.
Last week, a veterinarian determined that the cause of death of at least one of the Leduc cows was natural causes - complications from a liver abscess.
The Breton police, however, could not explain the fact of finding a man in a white car, which was reported by the owner of a mutilated cow, allegedly offending a neighbor's herd.
Supplement of August 5, 1992,
According to her owner, the coyote attack does not fully explain what happened to the mutilated cow found on a farm in the Lyndale area.
"I know for a fact that it wasn't a coyote who did it," Roy Silver said. "I've never seen a coyote with a knife and fork."
According to the Breton RCMP, the opinions of the two veterinarians, based on the photos, were that the cause of death of a cow found at Silver's property in June was "not artificial."
The cause of death was associated with the killing of a coyote and sharp outlined indentations around the udder caused by stretching of the skin due to bloating.
Silver admits that the cause of death could not have been a knife or a gun, but still believes that the death was man-made.
"It's more than just watching what you see."
He said that coyotes and other scavenging animals usually gut the carcass, but left it alone after they finished the udder.
Silver said he saw coyotes and crows ignoring the carcass, and said this could indicate that the animal was poisoned.
"That's definitely what I believe."
He explained that this is not so much the financial loss of a $ 1,200 cow and a one-month-old calf, which has since disappeared, but also additional stress for everyday operations.
"It brought us a lot of grief."
Silver said the incident forced him to change the way he manages his farm, from restricting the movement of his animals in the pasture to monitoring any car that passes by his land.
He said his neighbors have also changed their working procedures to keep a close eye on their cattle.
"We have to. No one else will help us."
Silver's attempts to get help from the provincial attorney General and from the Department of Agriculture did not lead to anything.
"It was definitely done by people," said Silver, who does not rule out that the incident is the work of cults. "There is no other reason why they will do this."

Mutilated cow not 'man-made' death
By Darren Pinkoski

A cow found mutilated on a farm near Drayton Valley is not the work of aliens or satanic cults, according to police.
Last month, Breton RCMP were called to investigate the discovery of a mutilated cow on a farm near Lindale.
According to Breton detachment Cpl. Ken Zielke, an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death was impossible due to the deteriorated condition of the carcass.
The cow had been dead for approximately four days and was heavily infested with maggots when police were called to investigate.
Zielke said, from photographs of the carcass taken to two veterinarians, it was the opinion of both that the cause of death was "not man-made."
He said coyotes commonly go after the softer tissue of the animal, such as the udder and sex organs. Bloating will also stretch the skin around the opening, making the gouges appear to be made by sharp edges, such as a knife.
Six mutilated cattle found recently on a Leduc-area farm have been attributed to everything from aliens to satanic cults.
Last week, a veterinarian determined that the cause of death of at least one of the Leduc cows was natural causes, complications from an abscessed liver.
Breton police, however, couldn't explain the sighting of a man in a white car reported by the owner of the mutilated cow allegedly casing a neighbor's herd.

Farmer still skeptical of local cow mutilation

A coyote attack just doesn't fully explain what happened to a mutilated cow found on a Lindale-area farm, according to its owner.
"I know for sure it wasn't a coyote that did it," said Roy Silver. "I've never seen a coyote with a knife and fork."
According to Breton RCMP, opinions from two veterinarians based on photographs, was that the cause of death of a cow found on Silver's property in June was 'not man-made.'
The cause of death was attributed to a coyote kill and the sharp, defined gouges around where the udder used to be to the stretching of the skin due to bloating.
Silver concedes the cause of death may not have been from a knife or gun but still believes the death to be man-made.
"There's more to this than just observing what you see."
He said coyotes and other scavenger animals will usually gut a carcass but left this one alone after finishing the udder.
Silver said he'd witnessed coyotes and crows ignoring the carcass and said this may indicate the animal was poisoned.
"That's definitely what I figure."
He explained it isn't so much the financial loss of a $1,200 cow and its one-month old calf, which has since disappeared, but the added stress on day-to-day operations as well.
"It's caused us an awful lot of grief."
Silver said the incident has caused him to change the way he operates his farm, from restricting his animals' movements in the pasture to observing any car that travels past his land.
He said his neighbors have also altered their operating procedures to keep a closer watch on their livestock.
"We've got to. We're not getting any help from anybody else."
Silver's attempts to receive help from the province's attorney general's department and the department of agriculture, have both to come no avail.
"This was definitely done by people," said Silver, who isn't ruling out the incident being the work of cults.
"There's no other reason why they would be doing it."
Hypotheses
Famous creatures
There are a huge number of different living organisms on our planet. According to recent estimates, the number of species of organisms on our planet is approximately 7-10 million. However, only 15% of the data are described today.
According to the calculations of Canadians, 2.2 million species live in the world's oceans, 6.5 million on land. There are only about 7.8 million species of animals on the planet, 611 thousand fungi, and 300 thousand plants.
Post-mortem changes
Because ordinary people are rarely familiar with the nuances of postmortem changes in organisms, it can often take them for something mystical.
Gray meat flies eat rotting tissue, leaving a sharp edge. This explains the "surgical" removal of organs and parts of the skin. However, such behaviors of the flies many take for the interference of aliens or attacked by unknown creatures.
The main signs of this injury:
Ritual, rite, custom
Ritual (Latin ritualis – ceremonial, from Latin ritus, "solemn ceremony, cult rite") is a set of rituals accompanying a religious act, or a custom—developed or established procedure for doing something.
A rite is a set of actions of a stereotypical nature, which has a symbolic meaning. It is often characterized as a traditional human action. At the same time, it can relate to both religious beliefs and superstitions.
According to the Great Russian Encyclopedia, these words are synonymous.
