For those of us in Europe we have the Shergar case. A grade one race winner, won the Epsom Derby and a few other grade one races. He had been retired to stud and he was ‘horsenapped’ allegedly by the IRA. No trace of him has ever been found
I can't say what happened to snippy, but I can say if it was an animal, one there would be blood and two carnivorous would have ate the belly area and the back end. JS
His named shegar my grandad used to work with race horses sometime he used to wach him in the field but before we went missing my grandad broke his back so he didn't know what happend
Vultures don’t generally strip the skin off bc they can’t break skin. They use the bite marks left by other animals to stick their head in and pull out flesh. If an animal dies of old age or disease, vultures will wait for other scavengers to break the skin for them.
You should do a vid about the “52 thoroughbreds” thing if you know about it. I see it joked about on Facebook sometimes and don’t actually know the context behind it but so many joke about it. It must’ve been ridiculous when it first came about.
Isn’t that where a lady tried giving out 52 thoroughbreds for free and says if they don’t get homes they will be put down? Pretty sure it was a fb post, anyhow I hope she does a video about it for clarification
Okay, so, about 12 years ago, there really were 52 Thoroughbreds that needed homes. They all got homes or placement with rescue rather quickly. But every year, it makes the rounds because people don't know how to check sources or look at original post dates and immediately jump on the internet warrior wagon and valiantly share it, even defending it when they are told that the post is over a decade old... they insist that it's new and urgent.... that these must be 52 NEW TBs needing homes and that they personally know the owner's family or they know someone who is connected to the family/barn/trainer. The story always shifts slightly. Some people make sarcastic and hilariously outrageous troll posts. 52 Thoroughbreds has become a meme in and of itself.
My mother actually has a story about her own personal alien encounter from when she was 17, about 45 years ago. It's been a LONG while since she told me the story, but I remember the basics. Just a quick mention, my mother has never had issues related to memory or mental health, and she is not at all a superstitious person, nor does she give the light of day to conspiracy theories. On the contrary, she's actually quite traditional and religious. She lived in a very rural area with plenty of ranches and farms. This happened on I think a regular school day for her- she generally biked to school in the morning by herself. Apparently she had just gotten on her bike, and was headed down her driveway when she felt like she was being watched, or caught a glimpse of something from her peripherals? (Again, its been a long time since I've heard it, so I can't remember the details) And she saw clear as day something behind her in the sky, obviously in the shape of a round, flat aircraft, a UFO. No wings, no points/ridges or anything like that, just an unmistakable saucer-shaped flying object that followed her in the distance--She was scared crapless and just pedaled fast asf, and was followed for a bit further until the object was suddenly gone. She didn't even see it disappear or leave. She just frantically looked back and it was gone. And then at some point that day, I think when she returned home, she told her family all about it and I think authorities may have been contacted? Because soon after she reported it to her parents, they were told that it had something to do with the military. Not much closure. But she never experienced anything like it again after that. I don't know what to think of it, but I know for a fact my mother is not one to make up stories, especially not about that sort of thing. But my working theory is that the military might have made the "UFO" themselves, practicing a spy method that they planned to use on another country, and put it under the disguise of some extraterrestrial business happening so that humans/military wouldn't be suspected. Either that or it really was aliens that fled when they realized their "victim" knew they were present. This makes me want to have my mom re-tell the event to me, and maybe I'll come back and edit this comment to tell the story more accurately.
"Imagine your horse was abducted by aliens and nobody believes you" 💀 gurl personally I'd be too ✨️traumatized✨️ to care I'd just be depressed as Frick but also that just sounds so weird
spontaneous thought about cause of death is that snippy was levitated, had her neck and head lowered into a barrel of acid that would only dissolve flesh and not bone (hence the clean line at the base of the neck), then got dumped by a vehicle that dusted their tracks
That would make a lot of sense in how the body would look like that, but not a lot with the motivation. Who would have the time, energy, and reason to do something like that? There is easier ways to stage an alien abduction.
@@AccidentallyOnPurposeI totally agree with you. Nobody is going out to the middle of nowhere (which Alamosa is to this day, I live in Colorado) to some guy's ranch with a vat of acid large enough for the whole head and neck of some random horse. There's just no way. And the equipment needed to lift a 1200lb animal upside-down to melt the flesh off and leave the skeleton? No way dude. And to not leave a trace? Sorry, I'm not buying it. Do I have any idea what hapoened?? Nope.
@@sixmercer2504 Not to mention with absolutely no flesh, just bone, how on earth would the bones even stay together? Answer: they wouldn't. The ligaments and muscles are what keep our bones in place, once they're gone, your bones will crumble together and just fall. The picture of the horse had the neck bones and skull stay together. If that substance that was used was sticky, maybe that's what kept them together. But otherwise they would've fallen apart if a human did this anyway.
Y'all make a fair point about the motivations to plan and execute such a job and experiment even for sick, maniac people, although I can make more sense of that than an extraterrestrial being having the motivations to travel through space and time, land on Earth, just to grab a nearby lonely roaming horse, deflesh the head while leaving the bones perfectly intact and stuck in place, throwing the remains off their spacecraft to confuse the heck out of humans for shits and giggles, then leaving no further damage or other signs of having entered our atmosphere. And why would it have been just a one time event, why didn't they come back to cause more confusion and disruption? The two "bullet" holes found on the flank bones could also have been from the device used to lift the horse, though I have no clue what type of device that could be. Maybe the abductors needed dissolved animal flesh for a sick experiment, and the lonely horse was a comparatively easy catch? It's a freaky story for sure, none of it makes absolutely no sense
Back in the days when dinosaurs roamed the Earth, I remember that there were many reports of livestock with precision cuts. I always wondered how this could happen all over the States. Also the original crop circles had many layers going in opposite directions plus it had a small amount of radiation.
About the Ants, I dont think they were radioactive, the area could have had some type of radiation before, but ants are in fact able to strip a skull of the flesh, blood and every tissue on it, they are often used to clean the skulls of hunted game, and they are able to strip a big stag skull in few days. I very much enjoyed this video, but I wonder if we would have different results if something like this happed now, with the state of forensics and science we have today.
As for the radiation. I am thinking they should research the history of the area. It might be of been used as a testing site in the 1950s. I know they did in Arizona, and people commonly watched mushroom clouds go off. This of course was before we knew the dangers. Or maybe the radioactivity can be coming from a natural source under ground?
This is the theory I agree most with. The horse may have dropped d3ad and ants/beetles could have cleaned the flesh. Odd that they would have stuck around the head and neck and not the body also. But I'm apart of a lot of taxidermy groups and oddities groups and that looked like a nice clean up by bugs.
There are current cattle mutilations that can’t be explained by forensics. So it didn’t stop with Snippy and the other horse. It’s been going on since then continually.
Poor sippy 3 years is so young , i remember when i had alot of UFO sightings in my area, and it freaked me out lol. Btw relaigh, your amazing, you've taught me to become an amazing rider. You inspired me to start riding and properly take care of my horse, i love watching you videos and clean my saddles and other tack. :)
I just watched Nope the other day so i’m probably biased but i fully believe the alien theory 😂 RIP Snippy. Thank you raleigh for discusssing such a unique and intriguing case! Love this video topic
I love the unsolved and unkempt video. These are amazing I listen to all of them so many times so I’m super excited for this one! Love you Raleigh keep these videos coming
No way girl. I just told my bf about Shergars case and wanted to go on your channel to confirm that the names right and there you are- uploading another Unkempt Video! Magic moment lmfao
After looking at the horse for a little bit... I recon she probably got struck by lightning, it would make sense as to the lack of blood, the fucked up head etc especially if there's signs of fire. However they said the meat from the neck was stripped which along with the flattened shrubs and odd marks makes me think of a hunter... really bizzare case and I'd like to know if this was an opportunistic killing by a human (obviously it's a human at this point). We also know that crop circles are used to gain attention and to earn money or fame for the people who make them, whilst it could have been mentioned because they genuinely believe it I'm more inclined to believe it was staged or made up with the intent to get the ranchers famous or make money. Humans will always find a reason to lie even if that reason makes no logical sense, just because you can't fathom a reason doesn't mean there wasn't and sometimes it's a shit reason. Usually if you look into these a little bit you'll find there is actually evidence and a possible solution but it's lost in translation as people spread what they want to see and the newspapers paraphrase stuff to get a better story. If you could speak with or read reports (actual verified) reports from the bioopsies rather than the witness acounts which are not good to go off of then you could get a far better idea. The fact that it's not an isolated incident even if only in a small way makes me think this was a human, not sure why or for what purpose either way I feel sorry for the horses who were very likely inhumanely murdered for whatever sick reason. The radioactive ants is still a more scientifically plausible reason than aliens, if you look into the mass alien sightings it's fairly easy to disprove them as nothing more than goverments trying military shit out or outright hoaxes due to movies or movements at the time causing for a bout of it. If these things were real it wouldn't happen in such small inconsistent ways, there would be patterns used over time for hundreds of years. There would be more evidence but there isn't.
I agree with you, not to mention that 1967 was during the space race, so Americans were especially fascinated by the idea of aliens at that time. So people were more likely to assume something was caused by aliens.
@@DustyHoney but no human can strip those bones and skull so clean and so white in 48 hours. Whitening of bones takes longer than 48 hours soaking in bleach or bury in dry sand for weeks if not months.
I grew up in Colorado, further north and west of your area. Around the time I was 13, i saw a cigar shaped "craft" in ranch country. We didn't have nearby neighbors. I'm also a lot older than you and this story wasn't very old at the time. There were also numerous unexplainable cattle deaths in Colorado for some time.
Cattle mutilations is pretty prevalent, I found a few sites dedicating to documenting them with photos and full reports of deceased animals. There have also been large animals that have been dropped/fell from the sky to land on telephone poles (found dangling/skewered up near the top), fascinating stuff!
it's so cool to hear you talk about this I'm from Alamosa Colorado and that was a story I heard all the time growing up to the point my teachers would point out where they found snippy on field trips.
Oh wow, that's an odd story. I've always believed in Aliens and the supernatural, there has to be something more out in the galaxy we're missing. And it sounds like they like to eat horse neck meat. Poor dear, RIP Snippy, the mysterious killed horse for centuries 🕊 Would it be possible for you to do a video on horseshoes? I plan to get a horse in the future once I save up enough money and I'm unsure whether I'd want to keep them barefoot or shoed.
Hi, you done a great job of telling his story, I have never heard his before, but I think and I would like to hear you do some horse mysteries, I like the way you narrate, good job, love all your videos!😊
Now that was interesting Raleigh, you should do more of these, thought is was weird a second horse was found dead, only snippy knows the truth, but would a horse stand there and let some one do that to her, she must of been drugged .
My theory: Some crazy guy/guys shot the horse, removed the flesh from the head and neck, using acid (which could also explain the "scorch marks"). They removed the bullets since bullets are an easy way of linking you to the gun used. Then they dumped the horse and created the "spacecraft markings" to freak people out. I mean, people have done weirder things, so why not? "Just" some psycohes out having "fun". And people gobbled it all up. Still, it's mysterious and really weird. And I feel very sorry for the poor horse, and her owners. :(
@@youraveragemexorican It’s not that difficult to remove footprints. The real question is how did a crazy guy/guys get acid that burns flesh clean off an animal’s bones?
I still don’t understand why someone would go through that much trouble just to kill a horse. And for what reason?There are some sick people out there,but I’ve never heard of someone caring enough to probably spend hours on just one corpse,especially considering it’s a horse. Now I myself don’t believe in the paranormal,but the answer still remains anonymous.
Insects like ants certainly can clean down to the ones that precisely, but not in such a short amount of time, and not leaving such a precise cut line where the flesh is still intact.
Is there a flesh eating beetle that does these kind of things??? I swear I remember hearing stores in the ER about beetle larva that can clean a body with in 24 hours. Plus if that was the case with this horse, bird could have came in after and ate the larva and beetles leaving no trace of flesh eating larva. Leaving a clean neck and skull of a horse.
I'm 7 months lates, But what i personally belive is that snippy had ran of quite a few miles , attacked by a wild animal who hit his neck , he was then able to hit the animal scaring him off , but the wonds were too severe so he then died , some sort organzation who moved on planes then discovered the caracass and brought the mares body on a plane. Cutting of the neck where the predator had left wounds and other wise cleaning the caracass, they cut a bug chunck , and very precisely, with some sort of tool that emited radation to burn the flesh , so it became perfect. They then dropped the body a quarter mile from that ranch to make it look like a freak accident and possibly blame the ranch owner, with this a tiny piece of flesh fell out aswell , even theough they kept the majority of the attacked flesh to experiment on. As for the scorch marks somewhere around carcass they lowered the plane not to demolish the body, the combustion of the engine burned some of the grass around. They then left. And if any mark could have been there the wind/air moved by the plane removed everything. Since some sort of raciocative tool had been used, the scorch marks were also left by the radiotion that came from the mares body. And it hit the area , making the flesh acid like by distorting its chemical composition and soon making its bones pink , this radtion which still somewhat reamin could have hit the area in other ways. I have no idea what a shrud is so, uh yea. And the marks left weren't close to the shrud so the shrub might be unrealted , left there from another accident(or just casully) The marks could have been left by another sort of veichle , maybe unrelated. This is my take on it, but insted of a plane and people , it could have been aliens and a UFO ( I also belive in Extraterrestrials and there are many things that prove their existences) which would explain how they obtained a radiocative tool and so the six circle marks are , in fact , realted and caused by the ufo. But i belive it is unlikely, beacuse there were no tracks around the mare, and the aliens should have walked there. And the mare was probably dropped from above. Thats my opinion , I belive the first one is more plausible in this case , but some things don't fit to well ( like the radiocative tool in 1967)
i find it very stupid how so many people have come up with ways snippy has died, then sticking to it. like there’s no other possible way, but, then there’s absolutely no way it could have been that. the horses whole head sliced clean? “no that was just a infection!” the fuck was it an infection? there could have been an infection but there’s no way in hell that could be the cause of death.
You should do a video on 2raw2ride. He’s riding from one state to another state. And how he’s treating the horse is just yeah. I can’t even explain it it’s just bad
Idk why somebody would do this, but what if someone poured strong acid over the horse corpse’s head? It would explain why the bones burned the person, why the bones were so clean, why there was no blood, and also maybe the burned grass
Great video I just watched another video on this subject on the Rocky Mountain ranch research UA-cam channel with interviews with some people who live here. These horse mutilations are weird stuff.
To me we're definitely not alone in the universe but there are definitely not UFOs randomly picking horses up. It's probably just some psychopath to me simply For all the weird things it's sometimes just incredible coincidences that, put together, seem paranormal Rip Snippy poor horse
At spending a few months in La Veta, CO, a rancher opened up a bit over the cattle being cauterized from the inside. All organs missing. He was obviously disturbed, and had a PTSD type reaction while telling me briefly about it. I couldn't get him to say much more than the basics, this tough older guy was petrified over it. I know it made national news at one point, but the locals were against any publicity over it. I hate saying it, but Made me a believer.
I'm not necessarily a big UFO/Alien beluever but I DO however believe it's quite obnoxious to think we would be the only beings in our solar system. I do believe many "sightings" are a load of humbug but yeah some things are soo strange though.
I prefer to opt for a theory involving the military and government projects over aliens, but that still has some flaws, like why would they need Snippy when they could just buy some cheap auction horses and why would they drop her back off? Regardless, this is an awesome story. Thanks for sharing Raleigh! You should really do more unsolved and unkempt. They are so much fun to listen to theorize about!
Pls this is so funny 😭😭 Also, you should absolutely get a horse skeleton, a real one, even if it's not Snippy. Like I'm unironically am going to get at least one when I have my own place.
Why do we believe that the ranchowner is telling the truth? Couldn't this all just be a cover up for something they messed up. Like hurting the horse, unintentionally shooting it leaving those holes or something else they would have been blamed or even fined for by the owner. Doesn't really matter how they messed up, but it sounds to me like the ranch owner didnt want the horse owner to know and as there were these alien sightings recentley they thought, why not cover this up by doing weird shit to the horse and then say it was aliens. Maybe the head was put in acid to remove evidence of something on the horses face or neck. Then the person drove the horse out in the fields (thats why no blood) dumped it there and played dumb for the rest of it. and it worked.
I mean there are basically three ways to clean bones like that: boiling, insects and acid. Boiling I find unlikely because of the sudden cutoff at the neck, same goes for insects, so all that remains is acid. Acid could also explain the scorch mark. However how does a horse end up with its head submerged in acid, having it taken out of the acid without falling apart as there are no more ligaments to hold it together and put in a spot in the wilderness without leaving any trail? The simplest explanation is usually correct, and in this case the simplest explanation is indeed aliens. Interesting though the cause of death and the radiation could be linked, if the bullets or instrument the horse was hurt with were laced with a radioactive material it could lead to a life threatening infection if enough of the material was deposited in the wound.
Whether this was manmade or really aliens, it is just truly bizarre. RIP snippy.
I can't imagine snippys last moments. Poor girl. I hope she's resting peacefully.
@Maddie I don’t believe in aliens. I think the whole thing is just a Lie for attention😕

Similar kidnapping of Canadian racing mare Fanfreluche. No ransom asked for and no leads.
@@sheblyne we need an episode on this case. Let Raleigh know in an email!!
His named shegar my grandad used to work with race horses sometime he used to wach him in the field but before we went missing my grandad broke his back so he didn't know what happend
Wouldn't wild animals, even vultures, try to consume the body after death? Snippy looked clean other than the neck and head in the photo shown. 🧐
The scavengers knew something was sus so even they didn't touch poor Snippys body
Then how would you explain the acid on the flesh?
They might not have found it yet. Nobody knows how long it had been lying there, right? It may not have been killed on site.
Similar to cattle ranchers confirming bodies of cows would not be touched by ANY scavengers!!! Not even FLIES! The bodies will be there years later!
Vultures don’t generally strip the skin off bc they can’t break skin. They use the bite marks left by other animals to stick their head in and pull out flesh. If an animal dies of old age or disease, vultures will wait for other scavengers to break the skin for them.

Usually if you look into these a little bit you'll find there is actually evidence and a possible solution but it's lost in translation as people spread what they want to see and the newspapers paraphrase stuff to get a better story. If you could speak with or read reports (actual verified) reports from the bioopsies rather than the witness acounts which are not good to go off of then you could get a far better idea. The fact that it's not an isolated incident even if only in a small way makes me think this was a human, not sure why or for what purpose either way I feel sorry for the horses who were very likely inhumanely murdered for whatever sick reason.
The radioactive ants is still a more scientifically plausible reason than aliens, if you look into the mass alien sightings it's fairly easy to disprove them as nothing more than goverments trying military shit out or outright hoaxes due to movies or movements at the time causing for a bout of it. If these things were real it wouldn't happen in such small inconsistent ways, there would be patterns used over time for hundreds of years. There would be more evidence but there isn't.
I agree with you, not to mention that 1967 was during the space race, so Americans were especially fascinated by the idea of aliens at that time. So people were more likely to assume something was caused by aliens.
Thank you for actelly being logical among these idiots
The skin was definitely removed from the horse’s head by a person. Humans are the only animal that do that.
@@DustyHoney probably some sick minded teenagers
@@DustyHoney but no human can strip those bones and skull so clean and so white in 48 hours. Whitening of bones takes longer than 48 hours soaking in bleach or bury in dry sand for weeks if not months.
I wouldn't be surprised if they killed the horse and faked everything just for fame, poor Snippy tho
Thank you for your sponsor as I am currently in debt from a vet bill 😂. Dog ruptured a disk and I did the surgery.
We need more. I love these and your videos are so entertaining!!!!!❤❤
I grew up in Colorado, further north and west of your area. Around the time I was 13, i saw a cigar shaped "craft" in ranch country. We didn't have nearby neighbors. I'm also a lot older than you and this story wasn't very old at the time. There were also numerous unexplainable cattle deaths in Colorado for some time.
I love your unsolved horse videos. I hope you get a chance to do more of them in the future.
Cattle mutilations is pretty prevalent, I found a few sites dedicating to documenting them with photos and full reports of deceased animals. There have also been large animals that have been dropped/fell from the sky to land on telephone poles (found dangling/skewered up near the top), fascinating stuff!
Wow I did not know that about the poles, that's wild.
I actually couldn't find any articles or evidence concerning the animals being dropped into the poles like that.
@@dreamlessforever I'll try to find some for you if I can!
I’m so glad she is back with this series! ❤
Pretty crazy what happened! Poor snippy and her owners :( great video and very bizarre!
Thx so much for this, I’ve been asking for a while and this rlly makes me feel happyyy Ty for everything Raleigh
SO GLAD THIS SERIES IS BACK! Absolutely my favorite vids on your channel!:)
PLEASE MAKE THIS A SERIES RALEIGH >>>>
ooh a new premiere! what did happen to Snippy? 🤔
I am so sad I am in school so I am going to miss it 😢
I was riding my horse so i missed it too😢
This is my favourite series you make!!!!!
Yeeess!! Finally a new episode of this series! Happy to always see u upload on UA-cam❤
This is an amazing story! I'm surprised its not more well known bc I haven't heard about this (and I watch a lot of alien shows lol)
Yessss I love this video series so much omg!!!❤ thank you so much for bring It back!
Thank you for putting in this much effort ily
I loved all the unsolved horse mysterys can we have more ❤ please ???
it's so cool to hear you talk about this I'm from Alamosa Colorado and that was a story I heard all the time growing up to the point my teachers would point out where they found snippy on field trips.
So happy this series is back!
Please make an unsolved and unkempt podcast!! I love listening to these!
I've been waiting for more unsolved or unkempt! I'm so excited.
Oh wow, that's an odd story. I've always believed in Aliens and the supernatural, there has to be something more out in the galaxy we're missing. And it sounds like they like to eat horse neck meat.
Poor dear, RIP Snippy, the mysterious killed horse for centuries 🕊
Would it be possible for you to do a video on horseshoes? I plan to get a horse in the future once I save up enough money and I'm unsure whether I'd want to keep them barefoot or shoed.
Hi, you done a great job of telling his story, I have never heard his before, but I think and I would like to hear you do some horse mysteries, I like the way you narrate, good job, love all your videos!😊
I really enjoyed this video! 😍
I love this video, you should definitely make more. RIP Snippy.
I love that you brought up project blue book. It's fascinating!
These types of videos are the favorites that you make I love watching them
I need more of these!!! Just watched the others and im in love with these stories as sad as they are
This was so entertaining…loving it!
You should do a part 2!
FINALLY!!!!!! I love these please do more of these I beg you!!!!! Love you Raleigh
I’ve been missing this little series
Omg please do this again!!! I was sooooooooo interested!!!!
It reminds me of skinwalker ranch in Utah were some cows have been found in a kind of similar way.
I would love more of these animal mystery type videos. Wonderful stuff.
Now that was interesting Raleigh, you should do more of these, thought is was weird a second horse was found dead, only snippy knows the truth, but would a horse stand there and let some one do that to her, she must of been drugged .
Hit with a lightning ⚡like weapon the animal would be instantly immobilized.
My theory: Some crazy guy/guys shot the horse, removed the flesh from the head and neck, using acid (which could also explain the "scorch marks"). They removed the bullets since bullets are an easy way of linking you to the gun used. Then they dumped the horse and created the "spacecraft markings" to freak people out. I mean, people have done weirder things, so why not? "Just" some psycohes out having "fun". And people gobbled it all up. Still, it's mysterious and really weird. And I feel very sorry for the poor horse, and her owners. :(
What abt their footprints?
@@youraveragemexorican It’s not that difficult to remove footprints. The real question is how did a crazy guy/guys get acid that burns flesh clean off an animal’s bones?
I still don’t understand why someone would go through that much trouble just to kill a horse. And for what reason?There are some sick people out there,but I’ve never heard of someone caring enough to probably spend hours on just one corpse,especially considering it’s a horse. Now I myself don’t believe in the paranormal,but the answer still remains anonymous.
Yessss I’ve been waiting for another unsolved video i love this series
I just love your channel, Raleigh!
we need more of these videos please
Insects like ants certainly can clean down to the ones that precisely, but not in such a short amount of time, and not leaving such a precise cut line where the flesh is still intact.
Exactly, also if it would’ve been “radioactive” enough to harm the horse, Snippy would have radiation burns on the body
I’m so happy she posted another one
*me getting a notification and seeing in unsolved and unkempt* I press so fast I swear
Is there a flesh eating beetle that does these kind of things??? I swear I remember hearing stores in the ER about beetle larva that can clean a body with in 24 hours. Plus if that was the case with this horse, bird could have came in after and ate the larva and beetles leaving no trace of flesh eating larva. Leaving a clean neck and skull of a horse.
I'm 7 months lates, But what i personally belive is that snippy had ran of quite a few miles , attacked by a wild animal who hit his neck , he was then able to hit the animal scaring him off , but the wonds were too severe so he then died , some sort organzation who moved on planes then discovered the caracass and brought the mares body on a plane. Cutting of the neck where the predator had left wounds and other wise cleaning the caracass, they cut a bug chunck , and very precisely, with some sort of tool that emited radation to burn the flesh , so it became perfect. They then dropped the body a quarter mile from that ranch to make it look like a freak accident and possibly blame the ranch owner, with this a tiny piece of flesh fell out aswell , even theough they kept the majority of the attacked flesh to experiment on. As for the scorch marks somewhere around carcass they lowered the plane not to demolish the body, the combustion of the engine burned some of the grass around. They then left. And if any mark could have been there the wind/air moved by the plane removed everything. Since some sort of raciocative tool had been used, the scorch marks were also left by the radiotion that came from the mares body. And it hit the area , making the flesh acid like by distorting its chemical composition and soon making its bones pink , this radtion which still somewhat reamin could have hit the area in other ways. I have no idea what a shrud is so, uh yea. And the marks left weren't close to the shrud so the shrub might be unrealted , left there from another accident(or just casully) The marks could have been left by another sort of veichle , maybe unrelated. This is my take on it, but insted of a plane and people , it could have been aliens and a UFO ( I also belive in Extraterrestrials and there are many things that prove their existences) which would explain how they obtained a radiocative tool and so the six circle marks are , in fact , realted and caused by the ufo. But i belive it is unlikely, beacuse there were no tracks around the mare, and the aliens should have walked there. And the mare was probably dropped from above. Thats my opinion , I belive the first one is more plausible in this case , but some things don't fit to well ( like the radiocative tool in 1967)
Omg I have been waiting for another one of these videos ❤
Really enjoyed this video😊 Would like to see more content like this
Why do I always click on these kinds of videos right before I’m going to go to sleep 😰
6:10 absolutely ironic as you have merch with link in a spaceship 😭 its one of my favorite shirts hehe
i find it very stupid how so many people have come up with ways snippy has died, then sticking to it. like there’s no other possible way, but, then there’s absolutely no way it could have been that. the horses whole head sliced clean? “no that was just a infection!” the fuck was it an infection? there could have been an infection but there’s no way in hell that could be the cause of death.
i absolutely love true vrime and unsolved misteries videos so thats a cool (and sad) concept
OMGG, LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!
You should do a video on 2raw2ride. He’s riding from one state to another state. And how he’s treating the horse is just yeah. I can’t even explain it it’s just bad
Your unsolved videos are my favorite
Idk why somebody would do this, but what if someone poured strong acid over the horse corpse’s head? It would explain why the bones burned the person, why the bones were so clean, why there was no blood, and also maybe the burned grass
Great video I just watched another video on this subject on the Rocky Mountain ranch research UA-cam channel with interviews with some people who live here. These horse mutilations are weird stuff.
I absolutely love these types of video!!!!!!!
Sad story but interesting and educational. Because technology has evolved so much
Its very interesting that ONLY the neck and head were stripped out of flesh and the torso seemed to be nearly untouched.
I think they should place cameras on the horses and outside
To me we're definitely not alone in the universe but there are definitely not UFOs randomly picking horses up.
It's probably just some psychopath to me simply
For all the weird things it's sometimes just incredible coincidences that, put together, seem paranormal
Rip Snippy poor horse
At spending a few months in La Veta, CO, a rancher opened up a bit over the cattle being cauterized from the inside. All organs missing. He was obviously disturbed, and had a PTSD type reaction while telling me briefly about it. I couldn't get him to say much more than the basics, this tough older guy was petrified over it. I know it made national news at one point, but the locals were against any publicity over it. I hate saying it, but Made me a believer.
Wow that is totally bizarre!
I'm not necessarily a big UFO/Alien beluever but I DO however believe it's quite obnoxious to think we would be the only beings in our solar system. I do believe many "sightings" are a load of humbug but yeah some things are soo strange though.
I think I’m gonna have nightmares, because that was just disturbing
I prefer to opt for a theory involving the military and government projects over aliens, but that still has some flaws, like why would they need Snippy when they could just buy some cheap auction horses and why would they drop her back off? Regardless, this is an awesome story. Thanks for sharing Raleigh! You should really do more unsolved and unkempt. They are so much fun to listen to theorize about!
I love this series! We need more! RIP snippy
Rest in peace snippy… i wonder whats her perspective of this 😢
I think Scully and Mulder need to take a look at this case.
Pls this is so funny 😭😭
Also, you should absolutely get a horse skeleton, a real one, even if it's not Snippy. Like I'm unironically am going to get at least one when I have my own place.
Why do we believe that the ranchowner is telling the truth? Couldn't this all just be a cover up for something they messed up. Like hurting the horse, unintentionally shooting it leaving those holes or something else they would have been blamed or even fined for by the owner. Doesn't really matter how they messed up, but it sounds to me like the ranch owner didnt want the horse owner to know and as there were these alien sightings recentley they thought, why not cover this up by doing weird shit to the horse and then say it was aliens. Maybe the head was put in acid to remove evidence of something on the horses face or neck. Then the person drove the horse out in the fields (thats why no blood) dumped it there and played dumb for the rest of it. and it worked.
Good theory.
Sheesh, this is bizarre! I've never heard of this story before...
Gee thx for sending me down the nightmare spiral....
I mean there are basically three ways to clean bones like that: boiling, insects and acid. Boiling I find unlikely because of the sudden cutoff at the neck, same goes for insects, so all that remains is acid. Acid could also explain the scorch mark. However how does a horse end up with its head submerged in acid, having it taken out of the acid without falling apart as there are no more ligaments to hold it together and put in a spot in the wilderness without leaving any trail? The simplest explanation is usually correct, and in this case the simplest explanation is indeed aliens. Interesting though the cause of death and the radiation could be linked, if the bullets or instrument the horse was hurt with were laced with a radioactive material it could lead to a life threatening infection if enough of the material was deposited in the wound.
It could just be humans experimenting with hidden technology though. Why jump to aliens?
PLEASE do more Unsolved & Unkempt videos!!!!!!
You are trying to age me by ten years! I was born in 1967, and I am 56. Lol
