You can drive an hour on the highway and still be in central Oregon’s Crook County.
Perhaps, then, it’s easier to understand why patrolling the vast remote region is difficult.
Seven cattle have been found mutilated over the last three months in Crook County and the sheriff’s office is actively investigating and hoping for a break in the case. This follows several recent cases in the past few years in rural Oregon.
“Well yeah, it makes us angry,” Crook County Undersheriff James Savage told the public media Northwest News Network. “It’s upsetting, because, again, it’s our livelihood. It’s how they make their money and how they feed their families and support themselves. And when this [the killings] is needlessly a waste.”

PRINEVILLE, Ore. (AP) Cattle in Oregon are again showing up dead under strange circumstances.
Over the past three months, seven animals have been found mutilated on ranch land in central Oregon s Crook County, the Northwest News Network reported Tuesday. In most cases, the dead animal’s sex organs, tongue or eyes are cut away cleanly and there is no blood.
The cases call to mind similar discoveries of five mutilated bulls in 2019 in Harney County, where five bulls were found dead in a 2-mile radius with their sex organs and tongues removed. There have also been cases in recent years in Wasco, Umatilla, Wheeler and Lake counties in recent years. There have also been cases reported in Arizona.
