Recommended Posts

user posted image rA rancher from the South Texas town of Cuero is telling a chupacabra tale and she say she has the evidence in her freezer. Phylis Canion says the animal had been lurking around her ranch for years. She said it first snatched cats, then chickens right through a wire cage.

“(It) opened it reached in pulled the chicken head out, sucked all the blood out, left the chicken in the cage.” Canion says two dozen chickens were sucked dry. The meat, she says, was left on the bone.

The man is right that it is a fox. Anyone can easily see that.

That doesn't exactly scream out 'fox', for me. The ears seem wrong. Anyhow, now they have a body....so, they COULD run some tests and do some examinations (Like, what happened to it's teeth and snout?) ...but, the question remains, WILL they seriously check this out or not?

My first thought was that it was a little dog. When I finished reading though, and looked back at the picture, it really does look like a fox. The link says they're going to do DNA testing on it.

This image below is a fox with mange. You can still see fur on it, though some animals with mange lose fur completely. The image in question seems to me to simply be a fox or some canine with mange.

It sort of looks like a malnourished, hairless dog....then again, it kind of looks like a cross between a pig or a kangaroo and a dog.

Chupacabra or not, what I find disturbing is actually keeping the dead creature in her freezer, not knowing if it's diseased. Even worse, to brag about it. :ph34r:

If you go into the cryptozoology sectionof the Image Gallery you'll see that there are pictures of the same type of creature.

Ahhh I see it now. I'll recant my original comment, although I can see how many people can confuse a mangy fox with something cryptic. No wonder the chupacabra is so elusive LOL I hope that when they test this creature, they figure out what happened to it's snout and teeth. Perhaps it was maimed or things twisted up during the freezing process.

The chepabre... the "thingy" lives in Brazil, used to suck blood out of their enemies, but its not normal they remove chicken heads, and its VERY VERY -VERY!!- rare they appear in Texas. The "thingy" started the rumors about werewolfes.

At first glance before I read anything I thought it was a rat. In Mexico and border towns it is very common for the field rats to grow to enormous sizes some rats can reach the size of a small to medium size dog. I guess it could be a fox but I am not sure if foxes are common down in those parts of Texas.
