Did a bit more digging and here is my unofficial and incomplete theory- Snippy died, laid down, or something, and was struck by lightning, which could explain the scorch marks and how clean the cut was, depending on how hot it was, it could also explain the lack of blood and the scorch marks around her neck. Lightning can cause radiation to a certain degree. The "exausht" marks could have been been from little zaps from the lighting, and the indents on the ground could have been from when it struck, it unsettled the ground a little bit. I have seen what lighting has done to horses; but only ones that were standing when it hit. If she was already down, then it isn't unlikely that it could have done that |

I've seen horses and people hit by lightning as well, and you're right on what could happen to anything that got hit. But looking at the weather around Sept. 7 1967 in Alamosa there was no rain or storms. And it's unlikely it was just heat lightning. But lightning happens pretty much anytime and anywhere.

You are right- I looked at a weather report and misread it, they had rain on the 8th not the 7th, that was my bad 🤦🏼♀️ Although- what are the odds that it was some sort of pre-storm lightning? I do know that lightning can strike up to 60 miles away from the storm, so if there was a storm somewhere around Almosa, it could have traveled from said storm on the 7th, and the actual storm blew in on the 8th |

I looked at reports around Denver, Rock Springs, and even into some cities in Wyoming just to be safe. There wasn't much rain in any of those areas. But it's very possible there was heat lightning since temps were not the average at those dates given. The only other thing I can think of is and underground wire perhaps that the mare stepped on or bit into and got electrocuted. |

This is a very interesting topic. With the information listed I'm assuming she was shot, laid down and was either struck by lightning or a nearby tree was struck and spider-web effected all around and struck the mare and left marks around the ground. |

I know she's pretty controversial, but Raleigh Link created a video that layed out all these facts on a timeline and it's very organized. Worth checking out even if you don't agree with most of her opinions, this video is well made. |

Perhaps, she came in contact with a radioactive substance and began to suffer. After, people saw the scene and shot her to put her out of her misery. Maybe they didn't speak on the experience because it was hard for them to talk/think about or understand. And then, she was struck by lightning. , Or, I don't know.. weren't aliens just declared real by the US government this year? But who is to say aliens would have a reason to do this in the first place lol. Also, i don't know if this can be called a UFO story in the first place if there wasn't even an identified, unidentified flying object. |
