Cattle mutilation is the killing and mutilation of cattle under supposedly unusual, usually bloodless circumstances. Reportedly removed parts often include an ear, eyeball, jaw flesh, tongue, lymph nodes, genitals and rectum. Reports began in the late 1960s and continued into the 1980s. In that era, mutilations were the subject of multiple independent investigations in the United States.

Many so-called mutilations are explainable as natural decomposition and normal predation. Multiple lines of evidence suggest some of the deaths might have been the result of an organized effort. Meanwhile, conspiracy theorists suggest cults, aliens, or cryptids (such as the chupacabra) were responsible.
