Mysterious Attacks Leave Livestock Earless in Kentucky
Live Science ^ | 12/20/12 | Stephanie Pappas

An unknown animal is attacking, but not eating, livestock in Kentucky, leaving many of the victims with gnawed or detached ears.

According to WAVE News, the attacks have been ongoing for several weeks in Shelby County, Ky. At least five goats have had to be put to sleep due to their injuries, and a goat named Polka-dot has been left with just one ear.

Kevin Cox, the local farmer who owns Polka-dot, has also had several of his bulls attacked, he told the news organization.

Kentucky officials are investigating, but there's no word yet on the culprit in the attacks. Odd livestock attacks often get blamed on supernatural creatures, especially the mythical beast el chupacabra, which means "goat sucker" in Spanish.

We have many people who run hogs with dogs and the dogs go for the ears.

“I noticed my whole steer bull looking a little different...”

A WHOLE STEER BULL?

I know was a whole male is; I know what a steer is; I know what a bull is; but I’m puzzled over the above reference to a “whole steer bull”.

Anyone have an explanation?

I do. Here’s a hint. The person speaking is a resident of what state?

"I noticed my whole steer bull looking a little different. It was covered in blood. Then my other two bulls come up and they had their ears all chewed up."

Either it's a steer or a bull, but it isn't likely it's both.
