The beings responsible for [cattle mutilations] only were allowed to do this with the consent of some of our governments. They did this to gain a great deal of genetic material for their harvest, both for cloning/hybrid purposes, and also as a way to sustain some of their bodies through vats/fluids which they absorb through their pores.
From my understanding this really doesn't happen much anymore, but I could be wrong.
Baron, aliens aren't "supernatural."
Insects eatin them is BS. Just like crop farmers making crop circles is BS. They can attribute SOME of them to this, so they use it as an excuse to "generalize" the whole phenomenon. Sad really, because we do want to believe the "most rational thing." Unfortunately, this makes us susceptible to outright lies.
There were also many black helicopters sighted during these mutilation events.

These aliens are really incompetent if they rip the cattle to shreds just to get a genetic sample. I can just imagine a member of the shadow government talking to one of them about it.
"Look, Zorglat, I know you need to study our cattle so you can make your superclones, but could you be a little bit less conspicuous? We on Earth have a technology called a hypodermic needle that will give you all the genetic samples you need from our cows without scattering pieces of them all over people's farmland. I'm sure you feel that we've already done more than enough for you by letting you do your experiments, but I insist that you accept our gift. Please!"

Black helicopters is also BS. And we again are knee-deep in cow dung and bull shit.

Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith were there too, but then I forget what else happened.
"..we do want to believe the "most rational thing". Unfortunately, this makes us susceptible to outright lies".
In my experience, people want to believe the most exciting, dramatic, or scary thing. That's what makes them even more susceptible to lies and fictions. Often if you give them the simple Ockham's razor explanation they're disappointed and look for conspiracies and see patterns where there are none.

X-COM was a great game, but it wasn't based on fact. Sorry to burst your bubble, AmentiHall.

Pssst!
My sister's boyfriend knew someone who worked at the Department for Alien Affairs who said she put her name down for a many-tentacled sex-fiend from Andromeda but was unsuccessful in securing her desired affair. However, she was offered a Draconian goat-mutater with only one pogo-leg and an infra red antenna but she refused. By the way, she says the helicopters are not black because black's too obvious or something. Anyways, get on the net and check it out for yourself, other than that, good work Amenti.
