[QUOTE="Wild Cattle, post: 829635, member: 7475"] There do not need to be burn marks for a lightning strike, an indirect strike will come through the ground and kill them where they stand or where they are lying down. With a direct strike you can tell what happened, hoof capsules can be blown off as well as the horn shells and there is sometimes a burn mark or a burned smell. Most cattle I have seen killed by lightning are indirect strikes, most I have seen killed at one time is 7 head. [/QUOTE]
