Loren-

Isn’t the site I linked reputable? Did they get scammed? The link is doesn’t work now, maybe they just caught it.

ive been hearing alot about chupaccabras in the the last few years and i must say this is the drawing ive seen of one. looks like a cross. gray alien, heyena, porcupine, chicken. also looks like the product of a bad acid trip, hope i never see one!

i will only say i am not for anything crossing the boarder illegally. especially chupacabras. but maybe the boarder patrol will catch one and we can cross one cryptid off the list.

joking aside weather it be a chupacabra or a Sasquatch i hope one legend dies and a new species is born.

The Russian article first appeared in Sploid, I believe, as a spoof.

Now you have a rash of sightings in Russia:

Similar descriptions, same modus operandi.

I believe the legend will continue to grow. Just look at the spawn of Chupacabra related movies in the past decade. It will exist as long as people believe in it. I am one of those believers.

The funniest thing about the Chupacabra phenomenon to me is the way that we can watch a legend evolve.
For instance, when the dog-like creatures were shot near San Antonio a couple years back, I remember reading a quote from a lady saying that this was, indeed, a chupacabra, because it looked like what her grandmother described to her as a child.
But the Chupacabra phenomenon is relatively new and we can trace, through the reports, its spread from Puerto Rico to the South and Central American mainland.
And speaking of the San Antonio Chupas, did anyone ever hear what happened with the DNA tests they were doing on them?
