The chupacabra (or
chupacabras, grunch) is a creature said to
inhabit parts of the Americas. It is associated
New Orleans it is known as a Grunch or Black
Grunch. Puerto Rico (where it was first reported
as a Chupacabra), Mexico, and the United States,
especially in the latter's Latin American
communities.
The name Chupacabra
translates literally from Spanish as
"goat-sucker". It comes from the creature's
reported habit of attacking and drinking the
blood of livestock. Physical descriptions of the
creature vary. Grunch Sightings began in New
Orleans in the late 1960's and Chupacabra,
Puerto Rico in the early 1990s, and have since
been reported as far north as the Carolinas, and
as far south as Chile. The Chupacabra, as it is
known now, was called 'El Vampiro de Moca' {in
Puerto Rico}, some years ago.
The Name Grunch
came from the name of a Road in the eastern part
of New Orleans circa late 1950's to present day.
Where many numerous stories of blood sucked
chickens, goats, cows and occasional persons
were said to have encountered them eye to red
eye. Many say the legend of the Grunch dates
back to the early settlement days of New
Orleans.
Though some argue
that the chupacabras may be real creatures,
mainstream scientists and experts generally
contend that the chupacabra and grunch are a
legendary creature, or a type of urban
legend.
Originated in
Puerto Rico in the township of Canóvanas,
numerous sightings locate him in the United
States, Central America (Mexico, El Salvador,
Guatemala) and South America (Brazil, Chile) New
Orleans as a Grunch.
The species would
dwell underneath the soil in cave-like
structures whose origins and makeup are
currently unknown. Other pretends that they come
from the future or a 5th dimension.
The legend of el
chupacabra began in about 1992, when Puerto
Rican newspapers El Vocero and El Nuevo Dia
began reporting the killings of many different
types of animals, such as birds, horses, and as
its name implies, goats. At the time it was
known as El Vampiro de Moca since some of the
first killings occurred in the small town of
Moca. While at first it was suspected that the
killings were done randomly by some members of a
Satanic cult, eventually these killings spread
around the island, and many farms reported loss
of animal life. The killings had one pattern in
common: each of the animals found dead had two
punctured holes around their necks.
Soon after the
animal deaths in Puerto Rico, other animal
deaths were reported in other countries, such as
the Dominican Republic, Argentina, Bolivia,
Chile, Colombia, El Salvador, Panama, Peru,
Brazil, the United States and, most notably,
Mexico, New Orleans.
Chupacabra in the news
At the height
of the chupacabra craze, there were many
"Goatsucker Home Pages" on the Internet. The web
site of radio host Art Bell, Coast To Coast AM
posted an alleged photograph of a living
chupacabra, depicting a creature later exposed
as a statue from a museum exhibit.
The chupacabras
phenomenon continues up to this day, with the
most recent reports of attacks continuing to
come out of Chile, Puerto Rico, and New Orleans.
Chupacabra Description There
are several variations of what people believe
the Chupacabra to look like. The current theory
is that it is a bipedal creature around four to
five feet tall described as a sort of a cross
between a 'Grey' alien humanoid, mainly because
the shape of its head and eyes, and what most
witnesses describe as the body of a bipedal,
erect dinosaur. It has two small arms with a
three-fingered clawed hand, two strong hind
almost reptilian legs, again with three claws
and spinal quills down its back, which it uses
to fly. This appears to enable it to run quickly
and leap over trees. Its head is oval in shape
and has an elongated jaw. Two red or black beady
eyes have been reported, together with small
holes in the nostril area, a small slit-like
mouth with fang-type teeth protruding upwards
and downwards from the jaw. It appears to have
strong course hair all over its body; and whilst
most observers claim the hair is black, it has
the remarkable ability to change colours at
will, almost like a chameleon. In the dark, it
will change to black or a deep brown color; in a
sunlit area surrounded by vegetation, it changes
to green, green-grey, light brown or beige. Some
believes it to be a half-man, half-beast
vampire, while still others say it is similar to
a panther with red eyes and the tongue of a
snake. Another version is that it hops like a
kangaroo and smells like sulfur.

Descriptions of
the physical appearance of each specimen can
resemble descriptions of other reports, or be
completely different from other chupacabra
descriptions. Differences in descriptions are
too wide to be attributed to differences in the
perceptions of the observers, causing
cryptozoologists to speculate that chupacabra
reports may in fact be attributable to several
species. Although they have different
appearances, chupacabra descriptions have
several common traits. They are typically
described as being 3 ft. (1 m) or taller, and
roughly humanoid in shape.
In New Orleans the
Chupacabra or Grunch is said to resemble a goat
with horns that walks on two legs. It stands3 to
4 feet (1 to 1.2 m) high, many oral traditions
say it's the cross between a a human and a goat.
But it is said to certainly suck blood from it's
victims. Grunch colors vary from grey, green,
green-grey, light brown or black, but always red
glowing eyes. Some believes it to be a half-man,
half-beast vampire goat, while still others say
it is similar to a Louisiana panther with red
eyes and the tongue of a snake, rather a mini
Loupe Garou.
In general,
chupacabras are said to appear in three specific
forms:
The first and most
common form is a lizard-like being, appearing to
have leathery or scaly greenish-gray skin and
sharp spines or quills running down its back.
This form stands approximately 3 to 4 feet (1 to
1.2 m) high, and stands and hops in a similar
fashion to a kangaroo. In at least one sighting,
the creature hopped 20 feet (6 m). This variety
is said to have a dog or panther-like nose and
face, a forked tongue protruding from it, large
fangs, and to hiss and screech when alarmed, as
well as leave a sulfuric stench behind.
El Vampiro de
Moca
The second
variety bears a resemblance to a wallaby or dog
standing on its hind legs. It stands and hops as
a kangaroo, and it has coarse fur with greyish
facial hair. The head is similar to a dog's, and
its mouth has large teeth.
The third form
is described as a strange breed of wild dog.
This form is mostly hairless, has a pronounced
spinal ridge, unusually pronounced eye sockets,
teeth, and claws. This animal is said to be the
result of interbreeding between several
populations of wild dogs, though enthusiasts
claim that it might be an example of a dog-like
reptile. The account during the year 2001 in
Nicaragua of a chupacabra's corpse being found
supports the conclusion that it is simply a
strange breed of wild dog. The alleged corpse of
the animal was found in Tolapa, Nicaragua, and
forensically analyzed at UNAN-Leon. Pathologists
at the University found that it was just an
unusual-looking dog. There are very striking
morphological differences between different
breeds of dog, which can easily account for the
strange characteristics.
Many residents of
South America and the New Orleans area have
reported sightings of Chupacabra, and although
various, the descriptions share some significant
likenesses. In many reports, accounts include
the visible inflation of the stomach region,
after La Chupacabra has been feeding. The
appearance of the animal changes when an
internal bladder-like organ fills with the blood
of its prey. Another common characteristic
associated with the sightings, are overly
visible and large testes. The speculated reason
for the enlarged testicles is that the frequency
of female La Chupacabras is very low. For this
reason, when mating occurs it is neccesary for
the process to be virtually guarenteed to
impregnate the female. Furthermore, with almost
all the reported sightings witnesses have
reported large portruding fangs. These fangs are
suspected to be hollow and be the vehicles for
the blood on which it feeds.
It has been
described as similar to gargoyles, so it has
been theorized that the creatures were seen in
Medieval Europe. According to this theory,
gargoyles were carved to resemble chupacabras,
to keep the public afraid of any place with
gargoyles.
Chupacabra:
descriptions of the creature has remained fairly
consistent over the years
three to five
feet tall dark gray facial skin coarse
hair on the body, and several reports said it
has a chameleon-like appearance, with the
ability to change from purple to brown to
yellow black eyes, or glowing orange or red
eyes a wolf-like or canine nose sharp
fangs short forearms with three-fingered
claw-like "hands" a row of fins, spikes or
quills running down the length of its
back stands on two powerful-looking hind legs
and clawed feet often hops on the ground,
like a kangaroo, rather than walks (at least one
witness claimed it could leap as far as 20 feet
in one bound) some reported bat-like wings
that enable the chupacabras to fly it makes a
hissing noise that often makes witnesses
nauseous
Some
cryptozoologists speculate that chupacabras are
alien creatures. Chupacabras are widely
described as otherworldly, and, according to one
witness report, NASA may be involved with this
particular alien's residency on earth. The
witness reported that NASA passed through an
area in Latin America, with a trailer that was
thought to contain an incarcerated creature.
Some people in
the island of Puerto Rico believe that the
chupacabras were a genetic experiment from some
United States' government agency, which escaped
from a secret laboratory in El Yunque, a
mountain in the east part of the island.
Some
superstitious people with high levels of
imagination might be seeing something innocous,
like a dog in shadows, and think it's something
else.
Both in Puerto Rico
and Mexico, "el chupacabra" gained urban legend
status. Chupacabra stories began to be released
several times in American and Hispanic newscasts across the United
States, and chupacabra merchandise, such as
t-shirts and baseball caps, were
sold.
The chupacabra is
generally treated as a product of mass hysteria,
though the animal mutilations are sometimes
real. Like many cases of such mutilations,
however, it has been argued that they are often
not as mysterious as they might first appear,
and in fact, in a series of tests showcased by
the National Geographic Channel in a show about
the chupacabra, pointed to the obvious
conclusion that every single "animal mutilation"
can be explained by either people killing them
or, more likely, other animals eating them. The
lack of blood is explained by insects drinking
it.

Chupacabra Powers Chupacabra are said
that thay can change colors like a chamaleon.
They can also fly or leap over twenty feet in a
single bound according to some witnesses. The
Grunch and Chupacabra are said to fly. In some
instances they swoop down from the trees in New
Orleans East suburbs like a large owl and snatch
small prey.
Some reports claim
the chupacabra's red eyes have the ability to
hypnotize and paralyze their prey—leaving the
prey animal mentally stunned, allowing the
chupacabra to suck the animal's blood at its
leisure. The effect is similar to the bite of
the vampire bat, or of certain snakes or spiders
that stun their prey with venom. Unlike
conventional predators, the chupacabras sucks
all the animal's blood (and sometimes organs)
through a single hole or two holes.
They also exhibit
intelligent behavior and possesses some
rudimentary skill of becoming undetectable. Some
say they can open locks, figure out traps and
avoid them and actually use sticks and pointed
items as tools.
These powers have
presumably helped Chupacabras to escape and
avoid instances of close contact with people.
And of course most certainly get to their prey
undetected.
REAL
CHUPACABRA PHOTOS
Jay Wroe caught a
creature in maryland and named it a hyote
because it was so strange looking. He tried to
identify it but was told it was a coyote with
mange.
Chupacabra Sightings Certain
South American rain forest natives believe in
the "mosquito-man", a mythical creature of their
folklore that pre-dates modern chupacabras
sightings. The mosquito-man sucks the blood from
animals through his long nose, like a big
mosquito. Some say mosquito-man and chupacabras
are one and the same.
Notable sightings
in the United States include one reported by
multiple eye-witnesses in Calaveras County,
California, and at a recent birthday celebration
of a Development Team member of a local charity
in Houston, Texas. According to these reports,
the creature was sighted for the first time in
the early to mid 1990s, harming animals of
different species. However, it is now thought
that people did this themselves.
This picture above
was taken by Regie Lagow He is the one who
took the picture of the animal that was killing
his chickens. He lost all but one chicken and
his neighbor lost all but three. In three weeks
it killed about thirty chickens, sometimes two a
day. The animal has been disposed of so there is
nothing to get dna from. If you look at the
pictures you can see its not a coyote like some
people claim.
In July of 2004, a
rancher near San Antonio, Texas, killed a
hairless, dog-like creature which was attacking
his livestock. This creature is now known as the
Elmendorf Creature. It was later determined to
be a canine of some sort, most likely a coyote,
with demodestic mange. In October of 2004, two
animals which closely resemble the Elmendorf
creature were observed in the same area. The
first was dead, and the second was noticed by a
local zoologist who was called to identify the
animal while she was travelling to the location
where the first was found. Specimens were
studied by biologists in Texas. The creatures
are thought to have been canines of undetermined
species with skin problems and facial
deformities.
The chupacabra has
often been spotted in Michigan. A recent
sighting occurred in Grand Haven, when a
forty-two year old man claimed he saw it suck
the blood out of a cat.
A famous appearance
in the city of Varginha, Brazil, (the "Varginha
incident") is sometimes attributed to the
chupacabra, although cryptozoologists more
frequently associate the incident with
extraterrestrials. In 1997, an explosion of
chupacabra sightings in Brazil were reported in
Brazilian newspapers. One report came from a
police officer, who claimed to get a nauseous
feeling when he saw a dog-like chupacabras in a
tree.
Recently, there has
been a surge of chupacabra sightings in the
United States, specifically in the suburbs of
Washington, D.C., and outside of the
Philadelphia area. However, controversy exists
whether these chupacabras sightings are
legitimate. Some contend that this chupacabra is
simply a beagle named Sophie Peanuts. Washington
PostPhiladelphia Inquirer
In April of
2006, MOSNEWS.com, reported that the chupacabra
was spotted for the first time in Russia.
Reports from Central Russia as far back as March
2005 tell of a beast that kills animals and
sucks out their blood. 32 turkeys were killed
and drained overnight. Reports later came from
neighboring villages when 30 sheep were killed
and had their blood drained. Finially
eyewitnesses were able to describe the
chupacabra. This May experts are determined to
to track the animal down.
El Chupacabras was
preceded by a Puerto Rican monster known as the
Moca Vampire, which had been reported in
conjunction with a rash of UFO sightings in
1975. A number of farmers discovered animals
massacred after strange lights appeared in the
sky. Investigators examining the slain animals,
which included ducks, goats, geese and cows,
noted with astonishment that they had been
completely drained of blood with almost surgical
precision. The Moca Vampire was apparently never
sighted firsthand, but it was generally admitted
that illegaly-imported crocodiles were
responsible for the killings.
In March 1995, the
Puerto Rican towns of Orocovis and Morovis began
to be plagued by some force that was
mysteriously murdering their animals. The
carcasses of goats, chickens and other small
farm animals were reported to be thoroughly
exsanguinated, with the blood often said to have
been drained out through a single neat puncture
wound.
01/16/06 - Angelina County, Texas Boys
Saw a Strange Creature While Hunting Boys
Found a Scary Sight While Hunting by
Ramonica R. Jones
"We found him walking around and the dog
started chasing him, and after he started
chasing him, we looked at it and it looked like
a sheep, so my brother walked up there, and Koty
saw a head that looked kind of like a
coyote."
Kolby Russell and his brother Koty found it
while they were squirrel hunting near Old Rifle
Road. The animal had leathery skin, long teeth,
and hind legs longer than its front legs. So
what do they think it is?
"Umm, coyote with mange," said Kolby. "I've
seen mange before, and he has a body kind of
built like a coyote, but he's real skinny."
Whatever it is, it put up a fight.
Koty Russell said, "We shot it. I shot three
times and he shot a couple times - squirrel shot
- and it just ran over there and fell down. It
got back up and we shot a couple more times with
buckshot and knocked it down."
This isn't the first one the Russell boys
have seen.
"I had chased it a couple times earlier,
about a month ago, and my friends didn't believe
me," said Koty. "I finally showed them."
Several of these creatures have been seen
roaming around Angelina County. The Russells
said they don't seem to travel in packs, and
they're certain there are more out there.
The Russell Family will send photos they've
taken to the county's animal control department,
then wait and see if the animal will be taken in
for testing to determine exactly what it is.
Sightings and slain
livestock continued to be reported in various
parts of Puerto Rico throughout the fall of
1995. The Goatsucker allegedly killed 11 goats
in the town of San German, and on one occasion a
group of townspeople said they chased the
creature away as it was attempting to kill three
roosters. In Guanica, 44-year-old Osvaldo
Claudio Rosado claimed to have been grabbed from
behind by a gorilla. Puerto Rico has no
gorillas. After fighting off the creature,
Rosado needed treatment for scratches and cuts
around his torso. In Canovanas, seemingly an
epicenter of Chupacabras activity with more than
150 animal slayings reported in 1995. Several
witnesses have seen it in broad daylight. One
such occasion was witnessed by Madeline
Tolentino and her neighbours in the Campo Rico
community (municipality of Canovanas). They all
observed it walking down a street at 3.00 pm in
the afternoon. As they approached it, the
creature ran away, 'at a fantastic speed' and
escaped. Mayor Jose "Chemo" Soto raised an army
of volunteers and personally hunted every week
for Chupa during nearly a year, armed with
rifles and a caged goat. He failed to catch it
but was, however, re-elected.
Since then, the
Chupacabras has been blamed in the deaths of
over 2000 animals ranging from other livestock
to household pets. Puerto Rico is no longer the
exclusive playground of the creature. Through
the Spanish-speaking media, the story travelled
through Mexico and the United States, leading to
sightings of the beast in several cities
including Miami, New York, San Antonio,
Cambridge, and San Francisco. 69 chickens, goats
and ducks were found dead on a Florida lawn,
again with their blood drained. Michigan and
Oregon suffered subsequent attacks. A rash of
bloodsuckings in Mexico created a minor media
sensation by late 1996. In October of 1999,
Brazil's Corriero Braziliense newspaper reported
nine goats and three sheep dead with single
wounds on the neck. Other Brazilian eyewitnesses
claimed to have seen an animal that fly or leap
with powerful, monkey-like hind legs, attacking
animals and humans both. In April of 2000,
farmers in Calamain, a mining town in the heart
of Chile's harsh northern desert, awoke to find
their goats and sheep dead in their pens. An
unidentified predator had mutilated the animals'
necks and sucked their blood. Calama officials
quickly called in the National Guard. Hundreds
of armed soldiers undertook a massive search of
the area, hunting the Chupacabra. Night patrols,
however, found nothing; neither the beast, nor
the puma skeptics believed was the real killer.
By late June, an official Chilean government
statement had blamed the attacks on wild
dogs.
EL CHUPACABRA
In
October 1995, Luis Guadaloupe walked into his
local police station in the town of Canovanas on
the island of Puerto Rico in the Caribbean. He
had an unusual story to report to the police -
whilst going about his normal business for the
day, he had a strange experience. Luis had
encountered a bizarre creature -
"It was
really ugly, like a demon, around four to five
feet tall with huge elongated red eyes. It moved
like a kangaroo - jumping on its powerful back
legs. It had a long pointed tongue which moved
in and out of its mouth. It was gray but its
back seemed to change colour - it gave off a
foul "sulphuric-like stench".
Since 1995, from all parts of
the island, many people have witnessed this
creature - some describing it with a ridge of
spines on its back. Furthermore, farmers and
local people have lost thousands of animals -
cattle, sheep, goats as well as dogs, cats and
birds - their gruesome deaths being attributed
to the strange creature.
When examined the bodies
of the slaughtered animals frequently reveal
shocking and dumbfounding evidence - small holes
in the neck or head and a complete absence of
blood in their bodies. Hence, the people of
Puerto Rico gave this strange creature the name
"El Chupacabra" - the Goat-sucker.
In early 1995 a police
officer was sent to investigate an animal which
had been found mutilated. When he arrived at the
scene he discovered a mutilated sheep and whilst
examining the body he became aware of something
watching him from the shadows. He was staggered
to see a creature about five feet tall with dark
skin and orange-yellow eyes. When the creature
left the scene the police officer chased it only
to be quickly overcome with a severe headache
and nausea. He soon collapsed.
The
existence of this strange creature can hardly be
denied but, despite the fact that hundreds of
people on Puerto Rico have seen "Chupacabras",
descriptions do vary. Some eyewitnesses describe
the creature with wings - others do not.
Another aspect of these
strange events is that quite often sightings of
UFOs accompany the discovery of the mutilated
remains of animals. Jorge Martin, editor of
"Evidencia OVNI" - Puerto Rica's UFO magazine -
stated: "I believe there is a strong
connection between the Chupacabras and UFO
activity in this area. Many people who witness
the Chupacabra also report some sort of aerial
phenomena. These witnesses - separated socially
as well as geographically, give remarkably
similar UFO descriptions. I don't think this can
be ignored when trying to understand the
Chupacabra phenomenon. At first I believed these
animals to be the result of some genetic or
bionic experiment, but I now believe that they
are not of terrestrial origin.
I have confidential
sources that have informed me that two
Chupacabras have been captured by the
authorities here and are being studies in
conjunction with U.S. investigators - there is a
possibility that someone, somewhere knows
exactly what is going on. Right now, I would say
the situation is out of control. It's happening
everywhere and government officials who are
elected by us to solve our problems are not
doing this at the moment".
Jorge Martin - editor of
Puerto Rico's "Evidencia OVNI" magazine,
believes there is a link between Chupacabras and
UFOs
The
authorities, initially, explained the events as
hysteria or mischief by humans. However, they
did employ government veterinarians to conduct
official autopsies on twenty animals which had
become victims of the Chupacabra. Dr. Hector
Garcia, head of the government's Agricultural
Department of Veterinarian Services stated:
"The autopsies revealed a
variety of causes of death, including parasites.
I believe the attacks are most likely due to
feral dogs or a rhesus monkey imported to Puerto
Rico for scientific experiments". Veterinary
Surgeon Soledad de la Pena was perplexed when
she examined the bodies of mutilated sheep -
Chupacabra victims
These
remarks attracted widespread derision and
accusations of a government cover-up - a
cover-up assisted by the media. Taking into
account the vast number of animals killed, the
numerous eyewitness accounts and terribly
mutilated bodies, the official explanation does,
without doubt, appear doubtful - at the very
least.
Some researchers have
suggested that the Chupacabras are the result of
some kind of covert genetic experiment conducted
by the military. These points are valid because
there is ample evidence of the US military using
Puerto Rico for experiments involving illegal
weapons and a whole variety of top-secret
projects - such as Agent Orange and Thalidomide.
Also experiments using "radiation weapons" have
been carried out on the island.
Meanwhile
Chupacabra events continued to be reported -
Juan Collazo, a policeman, shot a Chupacabra at
close range … with no apparent effect. Jesus
Sanchez, resident of Gurabo, discovered the dead
bodies of his rabbits in his backyard and
decided to mount a vigil, waiting for the
creature to return. Several days later Sanchez
found himself face to face with a Chupacabra. He
dazzled it with a powerful flashlight and gave
it two blows with his machete. He remarked "The
blows sounded like I had struck a hollow drum".
The creature escaped, apparently unharmed.
A fire chief also claims
to have scared away a Chupacabra by shooting at
it. Some hairs were left at the scene and are
being analyzed.
Because the state of affairs
has become so serious in the town of Canovanas,
the mayor - Jose Soto, who previously was a
police detective, has organized a series of
expeditions to try to capture the Chupacabras.
With the help of 200 heavily armed volunteers
and the civil defense unit, Soto has laid traps
in the jungles of El Yunque in the Cubuy region
of Puerto Rico, an area that has also long been
a hotspot for UFO sightings.
Mayor Soto states that he
has no choice but to take fears about the
Chupacabras seriously but his pleas to the
authorities are unheeded. He also said:
"Whatever it is, it's
highly intelligent - today it is attacking
animals, but tomorrow it may attack people."
Carlos Soto - a veterinary
surgeon - recreates the marks left after a
typical predator attack. The jaws usually leave
damaged tissues on both sides of the neck - no
so with the Chupacabra .
Sightings
spread to 40 of the 70 Puerto Rican
municipalities and, in fact, sightings are being
made in all parts of the island - does this mean
they are rapidly breeding?
In deed, reports of
Chupacabras began to emerge from places far away
from Puerto Rico - Miami, Texas, Florida,
California and Northern Mexico. Hundreds of
attacks have been reported in Mexico and in some
cases more than 60 animals have been slaughtered
- all of them had circular holes, usually in the
neck. Whereas Chupacabra attacks in Puerto Rico
were limited to animal mutilation, in Mexico it
has been claimed that the creature has attacked
people.
How the Chupacabra managed to
migrate from Puerto Rico to U.S. mainland is not
clear - the two countries are separated by 1000
miles of water. But it is clear that
descriptions of creatures seen in California are
the same as the Puerto Rican Chupacabra.
Juan - a local peasant
farmer told of how 30 animals had been killed in
one night. Earlier that evening may eyewitnesses
claimed to have seen UFOs.
Mutilated
sheep on the farm of Radames Marin in Youco,
Puerto Rico. The sheep were found to be free of
rigor mortis several days after their death -
confounding the experts.
Typical of a Chupacabra
attack - a clean incision in the neck or throat
with no evidence of a
struggle
The Alien Theory
One speculation of the Chupacabras' origin
is that it is either an offshoot or an abandoned
pet of other intelligent beings that came to
Earth a long time ago.
Luminous oval and
pyramidal shaped UFOs have been seen in the
vicinity where animals have been mutilated and
found to be without blood. These have been
reported in the towns of Cabo Rojo, Canovanas,
Ponce and Naranjito. In Barrio Hato, the Rojas
family observed a UFO. A horse and several goats
were found mutilated shortly after the
observation.
Disinformation and
debunking campaigns appeared organised through
UFO groups stating "Chupacabras" belong to a
voracious reptilian race of creatures, alien in
origin, who have started "devouring the
populace.
The Experiment
Theory The Chupacabras is also believed to be
the result of secret government experiments in
genetics. Some pretend that the lethal 'orange
agent' and other dioxine-based chemical agents
as well as gamma radiation tests have been
tested in several places by the US Government on
the island's population and territory for
decades.Knowing that thanks to genetic
manipulations, incredible new breeds of animals
and plants, it is quite possible that the
"Chupacabras" could have been developed by
humans.
The Vampire
Theory The Chupacabra was once believed to be
El Vampire de Moco, another legendary mauler of
animals of Puerto Rico which turned out to be
crocodiles illegally released onto the
island.
The other
Dimension/Time Theory The Chupacabras, or
aliens that we are seeing would be humans of the
future.... our own children.... travelling
through time in order to prevent the chemical
crisis that caused them to evolve into
"chupacabras. Our future-humans arrive at
critical times in order to either warn us or
attempt to prevent the progress of the
technology that will go awry and cause physical
mutations.
Chupacabra The Wild Animals
Theory Throughout the killings, the
authorities have claimed the deaths are due to
attacks from groups of stray dogs, baboons or
exotic animals illegally introduced in the
island's territory. The director of Puerto
Rico's Department of Agriculture Veterinary
Services Division, Hector Garcia, has stated
that, "it could be dogs, that the small puncture
wounds observed in the victims necks are similar
to those inflicted by the fangs of canines." He
also stated that no other unusual features have
been observed in the dead animals examined by
his division, and this included no loss of
blood. Veterinarian Angel Luis Santana, of the
private Gardenville Clinic, in San Juan, said,
"it could be a human being who belongs to a
religious sect, even another animal. It could
also be someone who wants to make fun out of the
Puerto Rican people. Loren Coleman agrees and is
comfortable with the wild dog explanation. "Dog
packs tend to do that, go on frenzied attacks,
eat a little, then leave the rest."
Chupacabra Evidences The
corpses of its victims have been found with many
small but regular pattern circular holes about
1/4" - 1/2" in diameter arranged in pairs of
triangular fashion. These particular openings
have been located in the neck, chest, belly, and
anal areas, and appear to have been made with a
surgeon’s scalpel. There are also reports of
certain organs missing from the victims, yet no
visible means of extraction was found on the
bodies. Reproductive, sexual organs, anus, eyes
and other soft tissue have sometimes been
removed.
The wounds may be
similar in appearance to bites inflicted by dogs
or baboons due to them being round and small,
but the similarity ends there. These wounds
penetrate through the right jawbone, muscle and
tissue, and straight into the brain, more
specifically directly to the cerebellum,
puncturing it and causing instant death to the
animal. This reveals a type of euthanasia
technique, for this method prevents the attacked
animal from suffering.
When the wounds
appear on the sides and belly of the victim, the
penetration usually cuts through the stomach,
down to the liver, apparently removing sections
of the organ and absorbing liquid from it. The
wall of the wound seems also to have been
cauterized apparently to prevent excessive blood
loss and no natural inflammatory processes have
been observed in the dead animals tissues.
Moreover there are no trauma, abrasions,
scratches, bites or pressure observed by the
examiners on the opposite side of the wound. In
most cases the victims lack rigor mortis and
remain flexible, days after their death.
Incredibly in some incidents, the blood, which
remained in the body, would not clot or
coagulate for days following death.
The Mysterious animal has been
blamed for attacking and killing a Doberman
pinscher and a Rottweiler the past couple of
years.
Expert: "Hybrid
Mutant" Is Just A Wild Dog Turner, ME (AHN) -
An expert who examined the remains of the
mysterious animal found dead over the weekend,
believes it was just a wild dog. Resident from
Litchfield, Sabattus, Greene, Turner, Lewiston
and Auburn have complained for years about the
mysterious animal with its chilling monstrous
cries.
Loren Coleman, a
Portland author and cryptozoologist, said though
he didn't know for sure what the animal was, but
based on his examination of its remains, "I
think this dead animal is a chow or chow-mix, a
relatively small dog, that was feral, which is
unusual for that area," he told the Sun Journal
newspaper.
State wildlife
biologists and local animal control officers had
declined to go to Turner to examine the remains
of the animal, which was found Saturday near
power lines along Route 4.
The animal was
apparently hit by a car while chasing a cat.
The carcass had was
photographed and inspected by several people who
live in the area and a number of speculations
were made over the identity of the creature.
Some said it was
simply a dog. Others said it was a goat-sheep
hybrid. Still others weighed in that the
creature might have been a Tasmanian devil, a
dingo, a wolf or coyote and other more
outlandish theories involved mutations and
extraterrestrials.
By the time Coleman
arrived on Wednesday only bones and skin of the
mystery creature were left on the spot. The
internal organs and skull were gone.
Nonetheless, he
came away with a paw and other body parts to be
examined later. Another paw has been taken by
the Sun Journal, which is exploring the
possibility of conducting DNA tests.

rancher near San Antonio, Texas, killed a
hairless, dog-like creature which was attacking
his livestock. This creature is now known as the
Elmendorf Creature. It was later determined to
be a canine of some sort, most likely a coyote,
with demodestic mange. In October of 2004, two
animals which closely resemble the Elmendorf
creature were observed in the same area. The
first was dead, and the second was noticed by a
local zoologist who was called to identify the
animal while she was going to the location where
the first was found. Specimens were studied by
biologists in Texas. The creatures are thought
to have been canines of undetermined species
with skin problems and facial
deformities.

2007at 10:45:08pm Some researchers have
suggested that the Chupacabras are the result of
some kind of covert genetic experiment conducted
by the military. These points are valid because
there is ample evidence of the US military using
Puerto Rico for experiments involving illegal
weapons and a whole variety of top-secret
projects - such as Agent Orange and Thalidomide.
Also experiments using "radiation weapons" have
been carried out on the
island.
