Chupacabra or coyote with mange, new Varmint to hunt in Texas??

[millagerobert]

Looks like you Texas varmint hunters have something new to hunt. Figure if anyone knows the truth to this it would be hunters who spend time out and about. Doesn't look like a coyote to me??? Check out the video.



Traveling all the way from its point of origin in Puerto Rico, the chupacabra (literally "goat sucker") has now popped up in the Texas town of Cuero. Or it allegedly has. Even better, sheriff's deputy (in training no less) Brandon Reidel caught the supposed chupacabra on tape.

Looks like a mangy mutt to me.

Yeah... I saw a thing about the Chupacabra on Yahoo yesterday. I've also watched the episode of Monster Quest on the History channel that was about the Chupacabra, I can't remeber what the conclusion of the analysis was though. The video that I watched yesterday on Yahoo didn't look like it was a coyote, dog, orone of the otherwith a serious mange problem for that matter, so I'm not sure what to think of it until they have conclusive evidence about what it actually is.

Saw the video on Yahoo, the snout kinda makes me wonder if it really is a goat sucker or not. Weird how they suppsoedly found Sasquath this week as well.

I hope no one honestly thinks this is somthing other than a canine, whether it be a dog or coyote is hard to say but why do people come up with these stupied ideas about weird mythical creature.
