The incident occurred near Alamosa, South Central Colorado (San Luis Valley) in early September 1967.

The real name of the horse was Lady.

Quote from the article:
“Did Snippy, the horse come out second best in a tangle with a flying saucer?

Mr. and Mrs. Berle Lewis, owners of the 3-year-old Appaloosa, whose mutilated – and reportedly radioactive – carcass was found in a remote area of Southern Colorado’s San Luis Valley, declare firmly that’s what happened.”

There is a connection between sheep mutilations and UFO sightings in Shropshire County, according to APFU member Phil Hoyle.
