El Chupacabra? - Coleman man kills chicken slayer! By Sidney Levesque / Reporter-News Staff Writer August 25, 2005 COLEMAN - Was the strange creature recently killed in this West Texas town a bloodsucking monster called a chupacabra? Or a coyote with a bad case of mange? Whatever it is, it's causing a big stir in Coleman, a city of 5,100 or so people 52 miles south of Abilene. In fact, the last time an animal caused this much talk was five years ago, when a Dallas-area hunter shot and killed a monkey on a nearby ranch. ''That was no organ-grinder...

A Texas farmer may have found what some would call a "chupacabra," a legendary animal known for sucking the blood out of goats. COLEMAN, Texas -- A Texas farmer may have found what some would call a "chupacabra," a legendary animal known for sucking the blood out of goats. Reggie Lagow set a trap last week after a number of his chickens and turkeys were killed. What he found in his trap was a mix between a hairless dog, a rat and a kangaroo. The mystery animal has been sent to Texas Parks and Wildlife in hopes of determining what...

Those searching for Bigfoot and other unusual creatures gathered Saturday for the fourth annual Southern Crypto Conference at the Montgomery County Fairground's Horseshoe Club. "About 250 people gathered today to talk about the pursuit for unknown creatures," said conference organizer Chester Moore. "We think this is important because (cryptozoology) is the forefront of zoology. This is about the pursuit of unknown animals and it's becoming very popular." And what crypto conference would be complete without Bigfoot. "I'm obsessed with Bigfoot," said Ella Howard, of East Bernard. "They practically own East Texas." There was a Bigfoot sighting 15 miles Southeast of...

Authorities have accused Anna Ayala, 39, of being a scam artist who attempted to shake down the fast-food chain after the March 22 incident at a Wendy's in San Jose, but the Las Vegas woman appeared in court before a small fan club. A dozen supporters came to the courthouse wearing T-shirts emblazed with "Free Anna Ayala" or "We...

(May 9) - The woman accused of fabricating a story about finding a finger in a bowl of Wendy's chili smiled, gave a thumbs-up sign and mouthed "I love you" to television camera crews during a brief court appearance on Monday.

A rancher in Elmendorf, southeast of San Antonio, found a strange creature attacking his livestock, and local animal experts say identifying it is a tough call. Devin Macanally says he has lived on his ranch for 15 years and has never seen anything like it. "It was eating mulberrys under a tree," he said. It is a strange dog-looking creature with a blue color that he says began a killing spree. Devin first knew something was up when his chickens started disappearing. At one point, 35 were gone in just one day. Macanally finally shot and killed the creature, and...

NACOGDOCHES, Texas - As it turns out, volatile chemicals from a top secret experiment aboard the space shuttle Columbia were probably not responsible for producing some kind of mutant killer deer-dog that is running around deep East Texas sucking the blood from goats. Anyone who logs onto the Internet and runs a Google Image search for "Coyote" and "mange" may see some animals that look surprisingly like the strange looking "Pollok Mystery Beast" killed Friday in Angelina County. But SFA forestry professor and deer expert Dr. James Kroll didn't need the World Wide Web to help him identify the creature...

Strange corpse has some muttering the word ‘chupacabra’ - 2/10/2005 By: Reed Upton Some New Mexicans say it’s the weirdest thing they’ve ever seen: a creature – and that’s the best word to describe it – found on Albuquerque’s West Mesa. To some, it’s simply intriguing. To others, it’s downright scary. The creature belongs to Robert Wheeler. “It was found out on the West Mesa,” says Wheeler. ”A friend of mine was out there shooting and kicked it out of the dirt.” “It looks like a gargoyle” said Wheeler’s friend Steve Garcia. “It has these sponge-like lips.” Garcia and Wheeler...

CHUPACABRAS "COUSIN" FOUND IN VALPARAISO Written By: Inexplicata Posted: 8/21/2004 Specialists from the Museum of Natural History subjected the carcass of a specimen found in Cerro Cordillera to a battery of tests. The situation came about a few days ago at the home of Manuel Otazo, who found the corpse of a strange animal inside a doghouse belonging to one of his animals. "We perceived the foul smell and thought at first that someone had thrown away fish byproducts. But then we saw that our pet was frightened and didn't want to go into his doghouse. Upon inspecting it we...

For education and discussion only. Not for commercial use. MEXICO CITY -- Even as swarms of monarch butterflies flutter back to the United States from their winter home in Mexico, another less-loved but equally large migration has winged its way north: tens of millions of Mexican bats. U.S. schoolchildren fascinated by the orange-and-black butterflies might not go quite so gaga over a wrinkle-nose little flying rodent like the Mexican free-tail bat, now summering in caves and under bridges in a broad stretch of the Southwest from California to Louisiana. But the bats' migration is perhaps just as endangered as the...
