This has been on the local news (not sure about national) for a while. Read this story about it.
So, what do you think about it? What do you think it is?

| not everyone agrees with that though, i watched the kens 5 news and it didn't say anything about a red fox, neither did fox 29. they haven't even done any DNA tests, but they are going to, read the article, "The digging to collect the animal's remains begins Tuesday. It could take four to six weeks to get the DNA test results back from the lab."

| Yea i know i read the article and watched the video. The video said that there was another case that had the same lookin animal to it but it was discovered that it was a red fox with some fruity illness.... now that i think about it though the animals do kinda look a little bit different.... but not much.

| i don't think it is a red fox, i think it's a hyena coyote mix. cuz i remeber that some hyenas from the zoo got out and they didn't find some of them. it's kinda freaky if they found out that it was the chupacabra though, cuz nobody knows if the chupacabra exists or not, it's a mystery bigger than the yeti...

| El Chupacabra means "goat sucker" in Spanish.
It's an odd creature that has been seen by several people, and caused quite allot of problems, mainly in Puerto Rico...and now, allot of other places in South America ..since the early 1900's. It's known for sucking the blood of goats, and other farm animals, and leaving them completely dry of all their blood, and often times it's organs. The animals claimed to be killed by it, have small puncture holes on it's neck..which is how it apparently drains it's blood.

| Well small puncture holes on dead livestock can possibly be explained by vampire bats. Although they don't take too much in one meal multiple feedings over a protracted period of time can cause blood loss severe anough to result in death. This would not be complete, but unsophisticated, and less than truthful people may embelish these stories with tales of this beast.

| Looks like a Kangaroo kind of, a young one. So you're saying it's some kind of vampire animal that sucks blood? Weird. Hopefully the news will talk about it after DNA tests are done and whatever else they do.
By the way McAnally has to be the funniest last name ever. | |

| It's probably an animal that has some kind of a skin deformity; I doubt that it's some fabled creature.
