The macabre discovery dates back to Friday morning, in a meadow in the North of the Meuse.
A two-year-old cattle lay dead on the ground.
He had been stabbed several times and his ear had been cut off.
She was found nearby, according to Le Républicain Lorrain.
Who is behind this act of cruelty that could have taken place the night before?
An autopsy of the animal was requested by the public prosecutor of Verdun.
An investigation was also opened for "act of cruelty on animals" and entrusted to the gendarmes of Étain.
This is not the first that similar acts have been observed in the sector, recalls the regional daily.
In mid-September, a heifer had been butchered and then a calf found with a pierced heart.
