A dead animal at Skinwalker Ranch reportedly sat for three years with no decomposition, no scavengers, no insects, and no obvious explanation.
Ben Woodruff returns to That UFO Podcast to discuss one of the strangest biological mysteries connected to the ranch, along with the so-called “path of the Skinwalker,” strange activity near Homestead One, unusual animal behaviour, cloud formations over the Triangle, magnetic material found in a catfish, and the biological anomalies that rarely make it onto TV.
We also get into Ben’s near-death experience, what it changed for him personally, and how it may have affected the way he now views the phenomena at the ranch.
This is a wide-ranging conversation covering Skinwalker Ranch, biology, UFOs, consciousness, NDEs, anomalous animals, and the limits of what can be shown on television.
