Quote from the article:
“ The witness provided his telephone number in his
initial email, and I called him that evening with a few follow-up questions. I
learned that the location of the sighting was in the southwest quadrant of Dade
County, and was also able to confirm that he had only passing interest in and
limited knowledge of UFOs prior to his personal experience. In fact, he asked
more questions than I did during the conversation and was surprised that there
have been so many sightings over the years here in this area.
One element of the phenomenon that he was well aware
of, however, was the proposed connection between UFOs and the mysterious
mutilations of livestock. He expressed concern that the craft observed was ‘checking out’ his own herd, since it was hovering above his pasture. He had heard
about the outbreak of such incidents here in the Ozarks in the 1990s, but was
not aware that at least one of them had occurred here in this county. I gave
him the names of several websites he could visit to obtain more information of
both types of incidents.
