The Hunt County Sheriff's Department is among several agencies investigating the gruesome death of a rare white buffalo, born nearly a year ago on a ranch near Greenville.
The calf, considered sacred by some in the Native American community, was found killed and skinned along with its mother on the Lakota Ranch.
The non-albino white buffalo was named Lightning Medicine Cloud in a special ceremony last summer. The chance of a white buffalo birth is said to be 1 in 10 million.
According to the Greenville Herald Banner, officers with Texas Parks and Wildlife, and the Department of Homeland Security are also involved in the investigation.
