Diplomatic Incident
OPINION: Your old mate hears an international incident is threatening to blow up the long-standing Anzac alliance as Kiwis and Aussies argue over who wants new Australian resident and former NZ Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern.
Over 18 years, graziers Judy and Mick Cook say 20 cows have been killed in the same strange manner on their Eungella property: organs removed with surgical precision, without a trace of blood left at the scene.
The most recent death was six months ago, according to The Daily Mercury, when the couple found the carcass of a cow with its udder, cheek and tongue cleanly removed. And, once again, there was no blood or marks of movement at the scene.
The "only explanation" they can come to for the mutilations is as strange as the crimes themselves: aliens.
"How is it happening? It must have something that lifts it up and puts it down and doesn't leave any marks" Judy Cook told The Daily Mercury.
"(Aliens are) the only explanation I have got."
