No, it 's happening out of Dulce base. At least that is what a Ranger friend told me.
The only time I noticed a lack of predators was when I came across a dead cow. She probably died while giving birth or had a disease. Either way, she
was on her side - belly split open. You could see the calf that didn't make it.
There wasn't blood or evidence of an animal attack. Even my dogs didn't find it appetizing.

I think most of the cattle mutilation stories are exaggerated by lonely cattlemen.

Quite possibly the most stupid thing I have ever read on ATS!

How insulting to an entire profession can you be to try and legitimize a debunking agenda?edit on 27-9-2013 by olaru12 because: (no reason given)
... that mutilations were predominantly the result of natural predation.
Missing or mutilated mouth, lips, anus and genitalia are explained as:
Contraction of missing/damaged areas due to dehydration.
The actions of small scavengers and burrowing parasites seeking to enter or consume the body in areas where skin is at its thinnest.
Missing/mutilated eyes and soft internal organs are explained as:
The action of carrion feeding insects such as blowflies, and opportunistic or carrion birds such as vultures and buzzards which are known to direct themselves toward an animal's eyes, and to enter the body through the openings of the mouth and anus in order to feed on soft internal organs.
Absence of blood is explained as:
Blood pooling in the lowest points in the body where it will break down into its basic organic components.
Blood that is external to the body, or in the area of a wound being consumed by insects or reduced by solar desiccation.
Surgical incisions in the skin are explained as:
Tears in the skin created when it is stretched by postmortem bloat and/or as dehydration causes the animal's hide to shrink and split, often in linear cuts.
Incisions caused by scavengers or predators, possibly exacerbated by the above.

Since I am agreeing with the OP in a way and only provided my REAL LIFE experiences, with a dash of fact, you choose to deny the possible truth.
Post some facts, or experiences, then maybe I'd believe your way of thinking.

Was anyone actually looking for bird poop? Which is all over the deserts by the way. Also if the carcass isnt found like an hour after, evidence is being swept away with winds, dried and baked by sun, distorted as any combination of those by the hour.
Insects have been used for 'cleaning' wounds and eating specific parts of meat, its a cocktail of possibility's that could result in the rear phenomenon thats taken people straight to aliens and their UFO saucers.
