The first recorded case of cattle mutilation in USA happened on September 1967, near Alamosa in the San Luis Valley, Colorado. An Appaloosa specimen (Appaloosa breed being introduced in America towards 1806) named Lady was found dead and mutilated. Both her head and neck were completely stripped of flesh
Although no official estimate exists, generally accepted figures indicate that forty thousand recorded cases have occurred in North America since Lady. Others have also been recorded in Japan, Argentina, Bolivia, Europe, Australia and Canada.
In one case documented by New Mexico police and the FBI,[8] an 11 month old cross Hereford-Charolais bull, belonging to a Mr. Manuel Gomez of Dulce, New Mexico, was found mutilated on March 24, 1978. It displayed 'classic' mutilation signs, including the removal of the rectum and sex organs with what appeared to be “a sharp and precise instrument” and its internal organs were found to be inconsistent with a normal case of death followed by predation.
“Both the liver and the heart were white and mushy. Both organs had the texture and consistency of peanut butter”
Gabriel L Veldez, New Mexico Police
The animal's heart as well as bone and muscle samples were sent to the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory, part of the University of California, for microscopic and bacteriological studies, while sample from the animal's liver were sent to two separate private laboratories.
Los Alamos detected the presence of naturally occurring Clostridium bacteria in the heart, but was unable to reach any conclusions because of the possibility that the bacteria represented postmortem contamination. They did not directly investigate the heart's unusual color or texture.[8]
Samples from the animal's liver were found to be completely devoid of copper and to contain 4 times the normal level of zinc, potassium and phosphorus. The scientists performing the analysis were unable to explain these anomalies.[8]
Blood samples taken at the scene were reported to be "light pink in color" and “Did not clot after several days” while the animal's hide was found to be unusually brittle for a fresh death (the animal was estimated to have been dead for 5 hours) and the flesh underneath was found to be discolored.[8]
None of the laboratories were able to report any firm conclusions on the cause of the blood or tissue damage. At the time, it was suggested that a burst of radiation may have been used to kill the animal, blowing apart its red blood cells in the process. This hypothesis was later discarded as subsequent reports from the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory later confirmed the presence of anti-coagulants in samples[8] taken from other cows mutilated in the region.

Last I checked in on cattle mutilations the general consensus was top-secret military testing for levels of radiation contamination, especially concentrated in the US southwest where there has been massive fallout from all the nuke tests that is kept fairly hush-hush. But other areas around the world are subject to fallout from these tests so doesn't surprise me to hear reports of cattle mutilations from all corners.
Dunno why this most plausible explanation has seemed to have been forgotten lately.

I wish someone would do a good series of tests with the body to determine if any veterinarian drugs are used to knock down the animal.
The lack of blood is interesting, but its not impossible to pull off.

The lack of evidence to support human activity is the most interesting part.
How and why a cow was mutilated on a Stockholm, Sask., area farm will likely remain a mystery because the carcass was discovered too late to carry out an autopsy.
The pregnant two-year-old Angus cow was discovered in a pasture earlier this month.
