Utah’s rural safety department officials took a turn to the outside world for Utah’s public safety department after the start of regular wildlife assistance stumbled upon a mysterious monopoly.
Officers from the Utah Department of Public Safety Aero Bureau were flying by helicopter last Wednesday, helping the Division of Wildlife Resources count the Byron sheep in southeastern Utah, when they spotted something similar to “2001: A Space Odyssey.”

“We were making this kind of joke that if one of us suddenly disappeared, the rest of us would run for it,” Hutchings said.
Still, Hutchings said he thinks it was probably put there by an artist rather than an alien.
“I’m assuming it’s a new wave artist or something or, you know, someone who was a big fan (” 2001: A Space Odyssey “),” he said, referring to a scene from a 1968 film. Where a black ecmolith appears.

The location of the monolith is not being revealed, and it is not yet clear who – or what – put the monolith there, the DPS said.
By Monday, the Bureau of Land Management will decide whether further investigation is needed.
