Subject: That gosh darn Chupacabra! From: triceratops_khan posted Sat, May 20 2006, 9:01am  I know that this is extremly hypicritcal and all, but how can members here beleive in these darn chupacabaras?? First of all, yes the words Chupa-cabra does translate to goat drinker, but what my friend from Puerto Rico who speaks spanish and was raised spanish meant was that the term was used to exageratingly describe bats that often hung around in barns and meadows with livestock. Also she told me that their is suposed to be an extra A in it so it is suposed to be spelled ChupacabAra...if that is wrong i'd have no clue, of the four languages I can speak, spanish is not one of them. Second, as I said before in my last post about this even if you don't beleive in bigfoot, yeti or loch ness or mokelee mbembe, you have to admit all the descriptions are similar, not exact, but similar. Sasquatch and relatives are human looking apes who walk primarilly bipedal. Loch ness resembles some sort of serpentine organism with the ocasional humps and flippers. Mokelee Mbembe is a rather good sized creature with a long neck and tail that is nasty tempered. Chupacabara on the other hand has descriptions that range from gargoyle like, reptilian, kangaroo, hominid like, and even the telepathic aliens that tell their victims not to worry. In absolutly NONE of the descriptions or accounts do they describe anything remotlly close to a dog...so how is it that a mangy coyote or a fox can be our mystery El Chupacabara??? I am not trying to tell people to not beleive in the Chupacabara, i'm just trying to get them to think of what they are beleiving in. If you beleive in the Chupacabara, hold onto your beleif in it but just think what you are putting your beleifs in. I never really beleived in Sasquatch, until I watched one for a good deal of time walk right alond the edge of my moms yard in broad daylight. ps. I know the photos of the scraggly coyote and the mangy fox are real, but they don't describe the Chupacabara in anyway so what is all the hype about a person who kills a sick animal??

The leads one to think the horrible critters the people report are not the ones who kill the goats. Anybody know of an actual bloodsucking report before witnesses?

He said that he yelled at it and it got scared off. Subject: Re: That gosh darn Chupacabra! From: triceratops_khan posted Mon, May 22 2006, 12:23am  So their is an eyewitness account of a Chupacabara attack? Now the only question is which Chupacabara did he see?? Choice A: A giant gargoyle like thing that is alergic to the sunlight? Choice B: A giant half bat half kangaroo critter? Choice C: A upright bipedal hominid with spiny growths projecting from it's back? Choice D: The seven foot tall lizzard/reptile beings with tails? Choice E: My personal favorite, the alien like biped that was communicating telepathiclly with the dog so it wasn't fighting back? Choice F: A dead mangy canid that matches absolutly NONE of the other descriptions yet people swear it's a Chupacabara?? So did the show say which one he picked as the culprit? Subject: Re: That gosh darn Chupacabra! From: 4040 posted Mon, May 22 2006, 1:04am  I like any of them that has eyes that glow red in the dark. The version with horns like the devil also sound interesing. Subject: Re: That gosh darn Chupacabra! From: triceratops_khan posted Mon, May 22 2006, 5:05am  "The version with horns like the devil also sound interesting" Since when did you know my ex girlfriend from high school?? lol. Subject: Re: That gosh darn Chupacabra! From: 4040 posted Mon, May 22 2006, 9:22am  You DO know what the word "Chupacabra" means in Spanish,don't you? Subject: Re: That gosh darn Chupacabra! From: triceratops_khan posted Mon, May 22 2006, 10:11pm  *Sigh* Yes, I do know that in the literal translation, Chupacabara does come down to "Goat Drinker". But still, it is possible for it to be my ex from high school since her father lived in Puerto Rico working for the F.B.I..
