    BTW, Bigelow is a gov't operative. He uses tax payer's money on these research projects and then never releases any of the data to the public.

    Some of the projects include, Skinwalker Ranch, UT. Mount Wilson Ranch, NV. And a place located outside of Sedona, AZ. And I am sure there are other projects not known by the public.

    The Skinwalker Ranch is indeed a strange place. I do not believe the research team will learn much. It is rumored Bob Bigelow's NIDS investigation of the ranch, which lasted for years, never solved the puzzle.

    Alpacas. Llamas. It doesn't matter what specific species there were -- they were used as bait by the show's producers.

    All along they made the claim that there were predators of some sort in the area and then they herded a bunch of helpless animals into an enclosure where they were sitting ducks.

    Bait.

    It was probably wolves, coyotes, or mountain lions that attacked them. They had real bite marks not "otherworldly" injuries.

    The series was stupid up to that point. At that point, it became abusive and no one with an ounce of integrity would watch it after that.

    I know you don't like the program, and that's okay, but don't lie about it.

    First off, you were wrong about the animals being Llamas. Secondly, they were not "bait" as you say and was in fact placed in an enclosure as a bio sensor. In other words to observe the environment for any changes. The enclosure was to protect them. Alpacas are in fact very tough animals and capable of defending themselves. They are occasionally used as protection for heards of sheep and goats against wild dogs and coyotes. IF they were bait they ought to have been staked out in the open. Third, Dr. Travis Taylor even states, the metal fence enclosure was for "protection."

    You are just wrong on all accounts, so don't lie and attack others integrity.

    Anyone who watched that show after the animals were put in a pen without protection has no integrity.

    So I said they were llamas and not alpacas. My bad, it's difficult to tell the two species apart if you're not a pro. But, that's irrelevant concerning what happened. Neither animal is designed to protect itself from vicious predators.

    The pen they were kept in had open-bar sides so virtually any common predator in that region could easily get in while the alpacas could not escape their attackers.

    That scene was widely denounced by many--do a little research.

    Travis Taylor can say anything he wants--the show used the alpacas as bait. No one could be stupid enough as to put defenseless animals in a pen with open-bar sides. They easily could have put cattle panels along the sides and top that wouldn't permit common predators in. They didn't. There was a reason for that. Use your brain.

    I get it that you liked the show. It fooled you into thinking there's something supernatural going on out there. You fell for trash TV. Don't blame anyone but yourself for that.

    The research is classified. It won't be released until unclassified.

    Southern Utah is a very strange place.

    Wasn't that where they filmed a John Wayne movie and so many came down with cancer?
    And the soil there has a lot of radio-activity in it.
