According to this week's UFO Hunters, a butte in Dulce, New Mexico, on the Jicarilla Apache reservation, is home to an underground base at which humans and aliens perform horrific genetic experiments. In this episode, the show, which generally tries to stay somewhere close to the evidence it presents, goes over the top. It presents nothing supporting the assertion that anything is in the butte, for instance. Some witnesses report UFOs over the butte, but that's hardly sufficient. There seems to be stories about aliens whirling around the community, but the show offered nothing beyond that. Genetic experimentation? One set of pictures showing a fetus taken from a cow. The show suggested it was some sort of hybrid animal, but gave no further evidence to support that claim.
At its best, UFO Hunters can be interesting. This episode wasn't its best. Carl Sagan used to say, regarding aliens visiting Earth: "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence." Bill Birnes, nominal leader of the UFO Hunters team, clearly doesn't agree with that. At Dulce, however, Birnes goes far beyond even his own lax standards.
