In the north Texas were seen two coyote-like animals that some of the locals have identified as chupacabras, the “goat-suckers” animals that are feeding on goat blood and whose existence has never been proved for real.

25 years old David Hewitt from Hood County killed one of the animals and said that he had not seen anything resembling it before. He declared that the first impression was that he was standing in front of a huge hairless Chihuahua. Benjamin Radford, who is the author of a book on the strange animals, says that there have been seen seven reported sightings of chupacabras in Texas in the past five years. There are a lot of theories regarding there animals: that they are alien creatures, or that they have escaped from a secret laboratory where the government makes secret genetic experiments. Benjamin Radford says that he is sure that they are mangy candies – dogs, foxes or coyotes, which changed their appearance due to the contagious disease.

Chupacabras have only been around since 1995, when they were first seen by a woman in Puerto Rico, who reported seeing a mangy creature with spikes down its back, 4 foot tall and weird looking. Benjamin Radford holds on to his theory that the mysterious chupacabras are mangy dogs, and says that probably no one would recognize a dog without hair if he saw it and that people tend to say they saw a chupacabra every time they see an animal they do not recognize.
