Snippy the Horse
In 1967, in the San Luis Valley of Colorado, a horse belonging to Nellie Lewis was found dead and strangely mutilated, in a case one account places after alleged UFO landings in the valley. The condition of the carcass is the case. This is the record of what was reported, not a verdict on what killed the animal.
◆ THE SHORT VERSION

- The Lewis account of the 1967 Snippy case describes a bright apple-green paste on the ground and dark exhaust-like smudges forming a circle some seventy-five feet across.
- Nellie Lewis is reported to have said that government investigators lied about the evidence in the Snippy case and refused her offer of a lie-detector test.
- One telling says Nellie Lewis and a newspaper correspondent watched bright objects on the ground below the Snippy site swing beams of light in arcs and shrink to red dots.
- An anonymous scientist called "Fred" claimed that looking into the Snippy case led him to around forty-five further unreported animal deaths.
