CATTLE RUSTLERS FROM THE SKIES

In 1897 a farmer named Alexander Hamilton signed an affidavit swearing that he and his family had seen an illuminated ”derigible,” occupied by very strange-looking beings, carry off one of his heifers. The animal’s hide was said to have been found in a nearby field the next day. This story has been written up in almost every UFO book on the shelf. Unfortunately, it has proven to be a hoax, something Mr. Hamilton contrived to entertain the local Liars’ Club (such clubs were once a popular rural diversion). However, it is a sobering fact that real animal disappearances and mutilations occur with disturbing regularity in UFO ”flap” areas, just as they seem to be an integral part of the general

”monster” scene.

Three farmhands outside of Twin Falls, Idaho, told police that a glowing elliptical machine settled in a field near an isolated steer on September 7, 1956. The men started to run towards it but it shot upwards and disappeared. The steer apparently went with it, for it was gone. Another case, later discounted as an April Fool’s Day joke, appeared in west coast newspapers in 1963. A bewildered farmer in Chileno Valley, California, was supposed to have reported that a flying saucer had stampeded his herd of cattle. Aroused by the rumpus, he reached the scene just in time to see a group of ”short men in white coveralls” grab a calf and haul it into the object.

A farmer in Isola, Italy, accused ”three dwarves in metallic diving suits” of stealing several of his pet rabbits on November 14, 1954. He claimed he caught the thieves red-handed near his hutches.

He said he had seen a bright cigar-shaped machine land nearby and had grabbed his rifle. But when he confronted the rustlers the rifle not only failed to fire but became so heavy he had to drop it.

Then he found himself paralyzed, unable to move or speak, while the little men carried his rabbits off to the object and flew away.

In South America that UFOlogist paradise, police officials investigating extensive flying saucer reports in Barcelos, Brazil, in September 1962, learned that seventeen chickens, six pigs, and two cows had all vanished during the UFO wave. A man also disappeared during that ”flap.” His name was Telemaco Xavier, and he vanished near the village of Vila Conceiçao late on the night of September 1, 1962. Three plantation workers testified that they had seen a lone man walking down a deserted road that night, when an illuminated circular object spraying sparks swept down from the sky. Three men leaped out, grabbed the lone stroller, and dragged him off. Whether of not Señor Xavier was that man remains unproven. But he was never seen again.

Minutes away from New York City several pigs reportedly vanished from their well-protected pens at the Agricultural College in Farmingdale during August 1967. There had been repeated power failures in the area throughout the summer, and many flying saucer sightings had taken place there.

We visited the college and learned that single pigs had been removed from several different pens.
