Texas Farmer Claims He Caught Legendary 'Chupacabra'

[Sequoia]

COLEMAN, Texas -- A Texas farmer may have found what some would call a "chupacabra," a legendary animal known for sucking the blood out of goats.

Reggie Lagow set a trap last week after a number of his chickens and turkeys were killed.

What he found in his trap was a mix between a hairless dog, a rat and a kangaroo.

It is some really old Chinese Crested breed of dog. TO me it looks like Stripe the Gremlin after they turned the skylight on him.
