I think i have found what the Texas "chupacabras" really are!!!

I'm sure most of you have read about the texas chupacabra that was recently shot. If you havent, read about it here

I'm pretty amazed no one has noticed this. But in the 1700's there was a beast that terrorized the district of Gevaudan(lozere) france, from 1764 until 1767. Here is a picture of the beast

Now compare that picture to the photographs of the texas chupacabra. They look exactly alike. I think that what SWomack found wasn't a chupacabra, but the same species that the Beast Of Gevaudan was. What do you guys think?(btw, I have a website that i started yesterday that im not near done with, but it has information on the beast of gevaudan and the texas chupacabra, can i post the link without getting this post deleted?)

So, is it just me, or...what?

After reading that... why did Undead keep coming to my mind.

Anywho... they need to trap one of these.

Probably cuz i mentioned 1700's. Whenever i read something that mentions a time period in the past, i think of that van hellsing guy.

sorry i accidentally double posted..(this is the edited double post) O_o

*mwahahahahahahah* -runs away-

ok so it is.....another what is it? That makes two what is its!

Texas Chupie was a wild dog. The Best of Le Gevaudan was most likely a hyena, or a pack of hyena's. Probably escaped from a Menagerie.

Actually, there was a film made about the Beast of Gevaudan called 'Brotherhood of the Wolf' - I won't say what it was because I don't want to spoil the surprise for anyone who hasn't seen it - but when I first saw it I saw the spines on its back and thought 'Chupacabra'

Of course, that's a movie, and has nothing to do with real life.
Not too mention the iamge you psoted is a much stylized version of the Chuppie. It in no way is suppsoed to depict what it 'really' looks like.

Anyway, didn't the wolf turn out to be nothing supernatural or weird at all
scroll down to read-





















From what I heard (haven't seen the movie), it was just a lion with crap stuck on it.

True. It was a film, and a very good one to boot. The pic was from the Coast to Coast site originally.

Thanks for posting this and giving me a link to the article.

This is the kind of stuff that ATS is supposed to by all about. Now excuse me while I vote "way above" for the threadbearer.

those pics look like a dog with the mange - skin complaint,

yay! *is happy i got a vote*

*votes fot voter*

GUYS! COMEON! NOTICE THE FREAKIN SIMILARITIES BETWEEN THE PICTURE AND THE PHOTO! ITS THE EXACT SAME BEASST!!

>_>

srry...

We are forgetting what the punckture marks look like on chupis victims. Something like dog would atack its pray like that. Its more like a giant moskito.
Besides why take the blood and leave all that nutrisious flesh behind.

I live in LUfkin ... everyone aroun dhere was freaked out for a minute then .. the newspaper came out with what it was and now ... No one is saying anything .. other than oh well ..

The similarities of the creatures appearance in the drawing, and of the two creatures pictured deceased, would be tied together if victims in Gevaudan had similar wounds to those that have supposedly been attacked by the Chup'.

I thought in Gevaudan they were torn apart and whatnot, and, if it were a big pack of those beast's of Gevaudan then they would have surely been sighted on the move? Right?...

I don't know, I do think the creatures look alike, both dead and drawn.

jesus guys it was coyote with demodex mange nothing more then a coyote with mites. Im sorry to say this but to keep this alive is flat out pitiful

yes Sky the same beast but i am afraid to say they both look like wild dogs/dingos
the link you found about the texas creature looks like a dead baby dingo/wild dog and the picture you found looks like another wild dog/dingo

What would a wild/dead or alive dingo be doing in Texas

I can see that this Texas 'beast' is different,but you have to take into account,it is rotting and most likely losing features and weight.I will say that it may be a wild dog,but one I have never seen.
These 'all-of-a-sudden' chuppies we keep getting reports on are indeed strange,but untill they get one dead and take a look at it under a microscope and can determine what it is,or get one live and see what it is,it/they may just be an inbred dog.

Going from a the looks of a mythical creature to that of a dog like animal is turning out to be a real bummer.People labling these dog like animals as 'thee' chupacabra may lose focus on the supossed 'real' deal that may be out there.

I much rather want to see the 'sonic the hedgehog' looking creature than an abandon 'mut'

Just my thoughts,not that they matter

I think that Chupacabras are real, there have been thousands of reports throught history.the pictures of them are cool.
