Residents rattled after reporting chupacabra sightings in mountains of Riverside County
reverside press-enterprise ^

"This thing was standing out there, looking at me” said Shuker, a private contractor who lives at the base of Box Springs Mountain, which divides Moreno Valley and Riverside. “It was the ugliest looking thing.”

Shuker said the hairless creature, glaring at him about 80 or 90 feet away, had a tail like a rat or a possum, with rippled pinkish skin, teeth jutting both up and down out of its jaws and was “at least two feet or more longer than the biggest coyote you’ve ever seen.”

“I yelled at it, in a big deep voice, ‘Get out of here!’” Shuker said.

I was skeptical until a saw the drawing. Sealed it for me, obviously true when you can draw it so clearly.

I was once looking across Lake Champlain back in the early 90’s.

Suddenly the water started churning and from out of the deep emerged “Champ”. On his back were Elvis and Jackie O - laughing as if they were joy riding. To my surprise - Bigfoot came crashing out of the trees, and jumped into the water. He swam out and joined them.

A UFO descended and took them all away. Too bad I didn’t hava a camera.

I posit that chupacabra sightings in an area are directly correlated to the number of credulous illegal Mexican dullards in the area.

The more credulous illegal Mexican dullards in an area, the more chupacabra sightings.

No credulous illegal Mexican dullards in an area? No chupacabra sightings.

Apparently we are currently accepting chalkboard drawings, so you are still in the running to receive full credit.

“Chupacabra” = Wild/feral dogs or coyotes with really bad mange, that’s been verified over and over again.

The chupacabra is right up there in Mexican myths/lore along with La Llorona, the “wailing woman” ghost who prowls the washes of the deserts, looking for children to kidnap. Hundreds, perhaps thousands of people (mainly Hispanics) swear they have had personal encounters with La Llorona.

Interesting, scary, great subjects for X-files episodes.
