Serial Killer on the Loose! Hide your bovines?

Authorities are working frantically to hunt down a serial murderer that has claimed the lives of nearly 30 cows in northeastern Oklahoma since August. Most of the murders have taken place in Nowata, Rogers, Craig and Mayes Counties (apparently Tulsa county bovines aren't priority number one). The first cows to go before their time were mutilated and butchered on scene, however, the latest victims have just been shot and left to die.



Investigators are busy passing out fliers and information at agriculture stores and feed lots across the 120 square mile area affected by the "Bovine Bundy" (my term) and are encouraging ranchers and farmers to be on the lookout for any suspicious activity (drunk rednecks firing guns from moving pickup trucks is not suspicious in this part of the state, mind you).
