I think it's a cross between a chihuahua (sp?) and an L.A. sewer rat.

It looks suspiciously like the almighty from the sumatran rat monkey from "Dead Alive"!

I'd say that's almost certainly a deceased dog. But what do I know, IANACZ (I Am Not A CryptoZoologist). :)

the video looks like a kind of dog or coyote or some sort of hybrid, but definately canine. The picture looks marsupialish or whatever rats are, whatever it is, the teeth and jaw are set strange and it has HORRIBLE mange. Maybe chupacabras have hereditary mange -_-

That would be a kangaroo with mange, currently dead.

I don't trust a news station during sweeps.

I believe said cadavers were both determined to be those of some manner of canid, possibly afflicted with mange.

The second would be kangaroo with mange, currently dead.

Take a closer look at the dentition.

Just google "worlds ugliest dog competition" or something like that.
The winner was one of those things.

I did. Could be a kangaroo, still. There could be another, valid, scientific explanition without resorting to Woo Woo stuff.

...I read that as Goatse. ..You know you're addicted to the net, when...


Anyways, I've no idea what that is. I doubt it's a chupacabra, though.

It could also be one of those wondeful "oddties" like the mermaid that was half a mummified monkey grafted to a fish tail, or like those rabbits that people stuff and stick deer antlers to, or like a horse/goat that has a horn superglued to it's skull so it can be a unicorn...

...I'm such a skeptic! :D

Doubt not the mighty Goat Sucker, or your goats will be next! Or, if you own no goats, some other small, quadrepedal mamal of yours shall be sucked by La Chupicabra

The best part of the article.

Another physical attack was reported in Guanica, Puerto Rico. Osvaldo Claudio Rosado claimed he was grabbed from behind by a gorilla. He was later treated for cuts and scratches on his torso. What makes this attack so mysterious is that Puerto Rico doesn't have gorillas.


And Neo, how could you mistake Uncle Dan for Aunt Sally like that, I'm ashamed of you. :D
