A Texas man spots a strange-looking creature outside his Lake Jackson home and snaps photos of it. Could it be the mythical chupacabra?

Nah, their natural habitat is airport restrooms and internet chatrooms, not chapparal ...

A new sighting in Texas! (story posted April 2, just to get that out of the way).

:scared:

Three years after the sighting this post was started to report on (link in OP is broken, but this one works http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/story?secti ... id=8244125)

The sighting this year looks much more like a chupacabra than the 2011 sighting if you ask me.

But borderline too cute. :-k

@chumley

"I hunted coons for 20 years with dogs and I ain't never seen nothing looks like that right there,"

"A coon don't make that noise, or a possum. What makes that noise? I guess a chupacabra does, I don't know,"

"Bubba, that looks like a baby chupacabra,'"

I had more fun reading the colorful quotes from article, still having a little trouble with some of the interpretations, double negative, country grammar overload... :wrt: I mean seriously could someone other than Bubba be involved with this story?

That's just silly. *Everyone* knows the chupacabra was long ago hunted into extinction by the jackalope ...
