I've been keeping an eye on the chupacabra sensation since it began. I was enlisted in the Army stationed in Alaska when I believe the first reports
began.
There were quite a few members in my unit that were from the island of Puerto Rico. One weekend, they all began receiving phone calls from their
relatives telling them something was loose on the island. They said it was some experiment from the labs there.
Being curious I asked the fellow soldiers what they thought about it, they (it was about 3 of them) were all astounded and thought it must be
something logical as an answer. They totally believed their familiy members, but just couldn't believe a "monster" was real.
I did a little research then, I believe it was like '94 and was introduced to the term "chupacabra". Quickly, my information was exhausted and I
listened and watched for more. I noticed how years later, there were reports that the chupa was migrating to America, particularly South Florida.
Now mind you, the description of chupas on the island of Puerto Rico, was a creature that was usually humanoid, with red eyes, opposable thumbs,
bounded like a kangaroo, quills on the back and the ability to either jump really far or fly.
Witnesses state that the creatures didn't necessarily display a fear of humans, but a rather nonchalant attitude. When they were discovered, the
creature would stare at the person and begin casually moving off. Not in a hurry, but definately moving off. It was stated that if the person got to
close or made an aggressive move, the quills on the creatures back would quiver and most witnesses state they felt the creatures could shoot the
quills out in defensive manner.
I began hearing descriptions of chupas in Florida, Mexico, and Texas that were different from what I was accustomed too. The descriptions of chupas in
the states, described the animals as being canine in appearance. Same glowing red eyes and very pronounced canines. No quills on the back and no
ability to fly or jump really far.
A few years ago I was at another site discussing cryptozoology, it was a site that was created because of some show that used to show on sci-fi
channel. Well, they had a show concerning the chupa and I did what I usually did, I checked out the show to see persons thoughts. There was the usual
people who didn't believe and people who did and those on the fence, all having discussion. A person who was new to the site then dropped a statement
that stuck with me.
This guy stated that he was a elderly guy who lived near Daytona Beach (which is central Florida). He stated that he watched the show and the things
they were talking about are real and he's afraid of them because they frequent the edge of his property which is a creek in his backyard. He said he
see them at dusk out there walking around. Here's where it stuck with me: He said that the creatures walk around on their toes like deer! I had never
heard this characteristic described. It was his one and only post ever and the tone was really of someone who was afraid and not usually on the
net.
This event was in like '07.
Fast forward to '09 and there's a show on NeoGeo that is discussing chupas. It's the one where the woman found a couple and put one in her truck
and had it examined. The results I believe was that the creature was some type of hybrid, possible red wolf and dog. It hit me like a hammer when she,
or one of the other witnesses stated that the creatures walk high on their toes............LIKE DEER!
How could that be and where did this come from? Did the people on this documentary read the same post I had two years ago and decide to include it in
their account? Possible.
I noticed how the animals that were examined, the vetenarians almost want to say that the corpse is a dog or a coyote or wolf, etc., but there's
something different. The canines are very exaggerated and there is the extra skin or "mass" on the animals back. It's as if the animal had
changed...instead of the usual canine build, they were suddenly like weasels with the hump in the back movement.
I couldn't put any sense in the chupacabra mystery because why are the two animals so different depending upon location? Those in North America are
described as canine, while those in Puerto Rico and South America are humanoid.
A researcher made the guess that the people in puerto rico and S. America are seeing monkeys which are common there, while people in the U.S. are
seeing coyotes or dogs. He gave a pretty good argument up until he had to explain why the monkeys (as he explained them) were killing rather large
animals and drinking their blood. He could do this with dogs and coyotes, but he couldn't do this with monkeys. While monkeys will occassionally take
a small animal as a snack, a monkey would never attempt to make a meal of a animal the same size or larger than itself. However, the witnesses in P.R.
and S. America state the creatures were killing animals from chickens, to goats and dogs,to even cattle.
From nowhere it hit me...at first I was like...naw, that's crazy to even suggest. To think that perhaps there is something, a virus, something, that
is capable of changing the two different animals into the chupacabra. Perhaps in P.R. and S.A., the virus affects monkeys for whatever reason. In N.
America, the virus is affecting canines!
This would explain why chupas in P.R. are humanoid, as monkeys are, and why in America they are canine, because we don't have monkeys.
As of right now I find it unlikely, unless the virus was created. Just a really, really out there theory.
