Another Chupacabra!

Post by Ranch Dog »

Another chupacabra found in my area. Kind of weird, that makes three of these in about 5 years. No one seems to know what they are.

I was thinking the same thing .... half rat, half possum and half Chihuahua .... maybe half something else too. Hey, Chupacabra .... anything's possible isn't it? :D

To tell the truth looking closely at the pics i would venture towards a very sick coon look at its hands snout eyes n ears. A coon with a very bad male pattern baldness or fleas:lol:

Yeah, I think it is some kind of critter with mange but it would be easier to tell exactly what critter if you could observe it in the field first hand.

They wouldn't survive up here. Not enough hair. Hope they stay down there it's weird looking for sure.

Greetings
Looks like a hairless Mejicano with mange. What an ugly beast.
Down here some villager would fire up the charcoal and invite the neighbors for "chicharon"... BB Q'd chunks of meat and stuff on the sticks. Nothing goes to waste.
As a side light had to make me one of those "cat traps". Seemsd the area population was getting such they were fighting over the rights of my shed roof. Skinny little white and yellow was "squirting" everything making his territory. Get to sleep again without all the snarling and running paws across 20 feet of thin corregated.

It was ruled a hairless raccoon and they were given 48 hours to let it go or kill it. I suspect it bit the dust.

That head doesn't look too coonish TO ME. But that doesn't mean much.
