Six cattle died mysteriously in Texas, with their tongues removed, the hide around one side of their mouths gone and no blood spilled, authorities said this week.
The cause of death for the six animals was unknown, the Madison County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement Wednesday.

The grass around the bodies of all six animals was undisturbed, with no signs of struggle and no footprints or tire tracks found, the sheriff’s office said.
“Ranchers also reported that no predators or birds would scavenge the remains of the cow, leaving it to decay untouched for several weeks,” the sheriff’s office said.
The sheriff's office noted that similar incidents have been reported across the United States and it was coordinating with other law enforcement agencies.
According to the article these cows were found along the highway in 3 separate counties and all animals were from different herds and pastures. 5 adults and 1 yearling and in two cases the genitalia and anus were removed with circular precision cuts matching the precision cuts on the cows' jawline.
I don't know what to make of cattle mutilation. Is it scavengers? Aliens? You decide.

If humans have a hankering for certain delicacies…..why deal with the whole animal? It makes sense just to cut out the delicacy parts…..Poachers could specialize in that….I suspect.
Google search cow eyeball or beef eyeball soup…..yeah ….humans like that too! “Here’s looking at you” 😉

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
During the past five years, hundreds of livestock mutilations have been reported throughout the United States. Of the states affected by this phenomenon, New Mexico has certainly had its share of unusual incidents.
Since 1975, over 100 mutilations have been reported throughout the state. Ninety mutilations were reported prior to Operation Animal Mutilation. Another 27 incidents were investigated under this year-long project, which began May 28, 1979. Twenty-five of these cases were reported as mutilations. In each of these 25 incidents, as I have shown ... the rough jagged nature of the incisions together with the evidence at the scene clearly indicates that the carcass was damaged by predators and/or scavengers. In most cases, the animal had died first of natural causes...
Rommel Report Conclusions
Overall, the evidence suggests that animal mutilations are a long-term, covert, prion disease sampling operation by unknown perpetrators who are aware of a substantial contamination of the beef and venison food supply. Although this paper presents evidence in favor of a motive for animal mutilations, there is still insufficient evidence to identify the perpetrators..............
The primary conclusion of this paper is that the animal mutilation epidemic of 1970-2003 was and is a monitoring operation for an infectious agent that is spreading through the human food chain (cattle, sheep and wild & farmed deer/elk). In North America (Canada and United States) the infection comprises a full-blown CWD epidemic in deer and elk and a sub-clinical BSE infection in cattle. The infectious agent, unlike all known viruses and bacteria, is almost indestructible and the symptoms in people appear very difficult to diagnose pre-mortem.
In short this TSE agent is the perfect stealth killer. If the hypothesis is correct, animal mutilation operations are carried out by a knowledgeable group that is cognizant of the biochemistry and infectious potential of prion diseases and their fatal spread.

What do you think it is?
If it's scavengers there would signs of them all over the place. If there are precision cuts then these are not scavengers.

I don't know what the cause of these latest cattle mutilations are in Texas.
But the subject has been around a long time and occurs primarily in the United States. India has the world's largest cattle population [125m+] and yet there are very few cases there.
Cattle mutilations appeared to peak in the 1970s. Resulting in the FBI commissioning a study dubbed “Operation Animal Mutilation” in 1979. Later becoming “The Rommel Report” as FBI agent Kenneth Rommel headed up the investigations. Specifically looking at cases in New Mexico.
He concluded

Rommel Report Conclusions
Unusually for Bigelow, his NIDS group also released their own public report in 2002
Unexplained Cattle Deaths and the Emergence of a Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy Epidemic in North America
it contradicts the Rommel Report

NIDS were unable to (or perhaps unwilling) to point a finger at the likely perpetrators of such an operation.
But the overall mystery remains.
