冠军赛前一天，俄克拉荷马州兄弟会会馆的院子里发现了死去的长角牛:“令人不安”

A longhorn was found dead outside of an Oklahoma State fraternity house on Friday morning. 

周五早上，一头长角牛被发现死在俄克拉何马州立大学兄弟会的房子外。

The discovery came one day before the university is scheduled to face off with the University of Texas Longhorns in the upcoming Big 12 championship football game.

这一发现是在该大学计划在即将到来的12大冠军橄榄球赛中与德克萨斯大学长角牛队对峙的前一天发现的。

Stillwater Police Department spokesperson Terry Low told PEOPLE that the longhorn’s carcass was found in the front yard of the university’s FarmHouse fraternity at 6:39 a.m. “Once officers arrived on the scene, they confirmed that the cow was deceased and requested assistance from our Criminal Investigations Division," Low said.

斯蒂尔沃特警察局发言人特里·洛告诉《人物》杂志，早上6点39分，这头长角牛的尸体在大学农舍兄弟会的前院被发现。“警察到达现场后，他们确认这头牛已经死亡，并要求我们的刑事调查部门提供帮助，”洛说。

Low also revealed that an investigation is currently underway, and the person responsible for the crime could face an animal cruelty charge, which is a felony. 

刘特佐还透露，目前正在进行调查，犯罪嫌疑人可能面临虐待动物的指控，这是一项重罪。

“In my 14 years, I have never come across a crime like this,” added Low. “This is very disturbing.” 

“在我的14年里，我从来没有遇到过这样的犯罪，”Low补充道。“这非常令人不安。”

The FarmHouse Fraternity shared a statement on Facebook following the discovery, saying, “No FarmHouse member was involved in this incident and we do not condone cruelty or defacing of livestock in any manner.” 

农舍兄弟会在发现此事后在Facebook上发表了一份声明，称“农舍的成员与这起事件无关，我们不容忍以任何方式虐待或污损牲畜。”

The organization said that the carcass was “branded” in “an inappropriate manner” with a phrase referencing their chapter.

该组织表示，这具尸体被以“不恰当的方式”“烙上”一个引用他们章节的短语。

“As a chapter founded on principles driven by our agricultural roots, we're just as sickened and surprised by this incident as our peers on campus,” read the statement. “It is disheartening to see the disregard for proper animal welfare and treatment displayed by this situation.”

声明中写道:“作为一个建立在农业基础上的分会，我们和校园里的同龄人一样，对这一事件感到恶心和惊讶。”“看到这种情况下对动物福利和治疗的漠视，令人沮丧。”

The FarmHouse Fraternity at OSU was founded in 1928 and strives to “build men in the most crucial aspects of their lives and develop bonds that carry on throughout life,” according to the chapter’s site.

俄勒冈州立大学的农舍兄弟会成立于1928年，根据该分会的网站，该组织致力于“培养男人在生活中最关键的方面，并建立贯穿一生的纽带”。

Following the findings, the university also shared a statement on X (formerly known as Twitter). “OSU is appalled at the disturbing display of animal cruelty that occurred overnight at an off-campus location near a fraternity house." 

根据调查结果，该大学还在X(以前称为Twitter)上分享了一份声明。“俄勒冈州立大学对夜间发生在校外兄弟会宿舍附近的令人不安的虐待动物行为感到震惊。”

The statement continued in an additional post: “Oklahoma State expects all students to adhere to university codes of conduct, and appropriate action will be taken based on the outcome of the investigation.”

该声明在另一篇帖子中继续写道:“俄克拉何马州立大学希望所有学生遵守学校的行为准则，并将根据调查结果采取适当的行动。”
