Yup, they shoot these gross looking creatures all the time down south and in Mexico. Each and every time they do someone screams Chupacabra. I don't blame them though.... it's a fun word to say.Omikron009 said:It's not a Chupacabra. It's just a coyote suffering from an advanced form of mange. People have caught the exact same thing before and thought it was a Chupacabra.
Indeed it is. CHUPACABRRRRA!quiet_samurai said:Yup, they shoot these gross looking creatures all the time down south and in Mexico. Each and every time they do someone screams Chupacabra.

Dude, no one's saying there's only one. They already said they killed 2.asspills said:thats a fucking skinny dog. And Chupa-Thingy doesn't exist. If it does, then its just a normal species that people make stories around. How the hell would a SINGLE animal exist in its own species without any others? And then, be sighted constantly for dozens of years.
]The Chupacabra is classified as a mix between a dog and a wolf...it's really not as menacing as people make it out to be. Basically the Chupacabra is just a very nasty, viscious dog.FargoDog said:Well they haven't really 'caught' it. It seems rather dead for that.
OT: No, it looks like malnourished dog or coyote.
Mind to back that up? You'd think that finding such a legendary creature would make world headlines.child of lileth said:Actually, they discovered fresh corpses, skulls, and bones of a few a few years ago. They look like undomesticated dogs with a specific illness. They have this purple-ish flesh and crazy canine teeth. They had a whole thing about it on History channel a few years ago.
So yes, they were discovered and proven along time ago.
I know, I thought it would be a little more well known at this point, but no one really cares. It was on that shitty Monster Quest show on History channel a few years back. They found what fits the description in the place where the whole myth originated, and the forensic professionals (specifically in the veterinarian dept.) said it doesn't match any animal on record. They used dental records of every animal like it (size, kingdom, and so on), hair comparisons to what little is on them, and DNA and so on. It doesn't match anything.Cowabungaa said:Mind to back that up?

Somehow I doubt it's validity if we've only heard about that on a show called Monster Quest. Some documents from various biology-related scientists would be nice.child of lileth said:le snip
