I have been frustrated lately with the amount of reports concerning Chupacabra sightings. Most, if not all, have been describing a dog-like creature. The most recent video of this creature can be found here
www.abovetopsecret.com...

Now my question is this....

Why has this creature evolved from this...



To this sorry looking creature?





How can something with glowing red eyes, turn into just a mangy dog?

I mean, chupacabra of the past was more monster-alien hybrid type.

Now, we have an overwhelming sighting database that includes these stupid looking dogs. Meanwhile, the legendary chupacabra image is slowly becoming degraded.

Where did this crypto go wrong?

Who is to blame for turning the classic image of the chupacabra into this annoying hairless dog-creature?

Whats the deal?

Chupacabra, what the heck are ya?

Thanks

Chupacabra means goatsucker. The two creatures shown are different entities. The "dog" has been DNA tested in an episode of "Monster Quest" and shown to be a canine, or common dog. The one most of us are familiar with is the upright walking one from Puerto Rico. The only thing that is mysterious about the dog is why its skin and teeth are different. Could it be a new or mutant breed?

I would like them to capture the PR chupacabra and do a DNA study on that more fascinating creature.

In conclusion, two seperate creatures that hunt the same way, hence the sharing of the name.

Exactly. The "true chupacabra" is from Puerto Rico. The countless "chupacrabras" we see on the telly is in most cases mistaken identity - and coyote/fox/dog with mange. Personally I don't really believe in Chupacabra due to the lack of evidence, although no-one can deny that there was something eerie in Puerto Rico in the early 90's.

As to what the Chupacabra is (if it exists)... It's nearly impossible to say for sure, because of the inconsistencies in reported sightings, and as I just said, mistaken identity. In certain cultures people see something they don't recognise and immediately rubberstamp it "Chupa"...

Sorry if I offended you. It just makes me mad that people mislead and further conceal the truth like this...

The Texas dog attacked livestock and chickens similar to the Puerto Rican chupacabra, hence the name sharing.
I think the dog is still interesting since it does have a different skull than most canines. The lack of fur is strange, since most wild animals need fur to protect themselves from the elements.
At least the Texas chupacabra has been identified as a dog to solve the main part of the mystery.

The DNA of the "dog" in Texas was tested and found to be a canine/domestic dog. Dogs can look completely different from breeding. Basset hounds and German shepherds look completely different, but they have the same DNA. Chihuahuas and Great Danes also are completely different in size, and yet they too have the same DNA. The chupacabra dog looks different from other dogs. The question is whether it was bred to look like that purposely, or is there a mutated gene out there causing some changes.
