Mitchell found the first cow in December 2011."She had obviously been cut on the side of her jaw," Mitchell said. "Her tongue was gone, her ear was gone."She initially assumed the animal had fallen victim to teenagers or was part of a sacrificial ritual, until earlier this month. Mitchell made the next discovery on July 9."I looked first to see her tongue was gone, then immediately noticed the udder had been completely removed," Mitchell said.The reproductive organs were gone too, Mitchell said. A char mark outlining the cow's body - still visible today - made the death even more mysterious.

And this is the first time I've heard of a "char mark" outling the body.
About that time there were also several burned areas in farmer's fields surrounding the Air Base. I saw two of the circles. The burned circles were approximately 30 feet across and had a dead cow in the center. All the flesh was burned from the cow, but no blood was on the ground or apparently in the cow. Some of the cows had neat, clean burned out cavities in the abdomen about a foot in diameter, and a foot or so deep.

I doubt it's any sort of alien lfeform, but there has def. something strange involving catle going on for decades. I first heard of it as a kid in the mid-70s. Neighbors of my great-grandpa's livestock operation in Adair Co. lost a cow and a steer in a similar manner, and other parts of n.e. Mo. had some too. Very clean, surgical cuts, little if any blood. These were NOT victims of coyotes or other animals. Too precise. People were spooked by it, even combat vets. Odd lights were seen at night around that time too. Sporadic events through the 1980s and 1990s too that I've heard of, and in Sullivan Co. around 2002. I think it happens more than is reported too, since the livstock owners don't wish to be subject to the kind of ridicule seen in some of these other comments.

The char marks around the dead cow is what I found interesting. As I stated before, I've never heard of this being reported with previous mutilations.
Since this is in your neck of the woods, please keep us up to date on any new developments.
Orange glowing sphere moving at constant speed and altitude.
Orange glowing sphere moving in a straight line from North to South at a constant altitude. Witnesses located on the ground East of object.
Three of the witnesses are ATP rated pilots.
Could not be aircraft lights unless the navigation lights were of the wrong color and in the incorrect orientation (red on the left wing, green in the right wing).
Speed was difficult to gauge as the range to the object was unknown although it was obvious that the object was moving much too fast to be a balloon of any kind.
The altitude was estimated at 2500 to 3000 feet assuming it was as close as it appeared.

She reported finding a dead cow on July 19th, which could, depending on how long it lay there, fall into the time frame of this sighting. Where is Henry County in relation to the St. Louis airport?
