Special Ed Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/texas-family-caught-chupacabra-article-1.1742980 A Texas family believes they have finally captured the elusive chupacabra. The mythical creature, which legend says kills goats and other cattle, has never been proven to exist, but many people have often claimed to have hunted the animal of which there are many different descriptions. Jackie Stock said her husband, Arlen Parma, captured their animal on their Ratcliffe property Sunday. They are seeking confirmation that they've made the once in a lifetime discovery, TV Station KAVU-TV reports. "He called me to come and look, and I said 'Bubba that looks like a baby chupacabra,'" Stock told the station. The dark, hairless animal that looks like a large dog is now in a cage and appears fairly peaceful as he eats a diet of corn and cat food. - I have to admit a very interesting animal. A wildlife 'expert' claims that it's a fox/coyote/wolf with some sort of skin ailment. I completely disagree with that. The head and eyes look very disproportionate for any canine and the animal seems to stand on its hind legs. To me it resembles more a kangaroo. One thing for sure I haven't seen anything like it. Will be interesting if this turns out to be true. It's surprising how some experts can dismiss this so quickly when clearly it's not a canine that we know. Just goes to show a certificate doesn't always make you right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which was some kind of canine. Which I had already pointed out in the OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which I had already pointed out in the OP.Well, I'll go with his opinion over yours. Even if it turns out to be a raccoon or something like that, at least he's not trying to spread some chupacabra BS around.Of course, if it does turn out to be a canine, I get the feeling that you won't be changing your opinion on 'experts', or your own 'expertise'.

After raccoon was mentioned I watched it again. 90% sure that's the case. 90% certainty form our resident hairless raccoon expert is good enough for me.

EDIT: Some animals simply shouldnt be going for the full body brazilian wax. When did I say I was an expert? And it was someone else that mentioned the raccoon. This was meant kind of as an interesting fun article to share compared to others here, so if you have nothing constructive or comical to add then just don't bother.
