The FBI probed into cattle mutilation cases in New Mexico and many other states from the west coast to the Midwest.
Bobby Pierce, deputy director for the New Mexico Livestock Board – says the Livestock Board was unable to explain five percent of the cattle mutilations that occurred in the late 1970s.
The FBI got involved at the urging of New Mexico Senator Harrison Schmitt, according to the article/TV news report.
Quote from the introduction to the FBI Animal Mutilation Project:
“Various theories concerning the origins of the mutilations were explored by the FBI, including … UFOs, …”
And the FBI has named the Web page address, “ufoanim”!
