| Cows and chickens were recently killed and drained of blood at Mac Dee Dee's Organic Farm, alledgedly by the Chupacabra . . . but Chupacabra reports have never occured this far north! Continue reading to learn more about this discovery! |
Many haven't heard about the creature focused in today's article, but
many in the southern parts of the United States and places around
Costa Rica and neighboring islands have, and they fear it greatly.
What mysterious creature am I talking about? I'm talking about an
elusive beast said to roam the aforementioned areas that sneaks into
people's farm's . . . leaving nothing more than dead goats and other
livestock, sucked dry with no blood remaining in their bodies. I'm
talking about the dreaded Chupacabra!
The Chupacabra is Spanish for “goat sucker”. But what in the
world is it? Well, for those of you who don't know, it's a cryptid
(those are secretive animals, such as Big Foot and the Loch Ness
Monster) that is believed to be rather dog or coyote-like in shape
and body plan, but it is said to mostly covered in sparse hair.
Unlike members of the canine family known to science, the Chupacabra
is said to feed on the blood of livestock in the darkness of night
(fortunately, it doesn't attack humans). Like Big Foot and the Loch
Ness Monster, Chupacabra sightings have been numerous over the years;
there have been sightings dating back to the late 20th
century and the most northern ones taking place in the southwestern
United States (specifically Texas) . . . until now!
Just last Thursday night, the local farmer Mac Dee Dee at Mac Dee
Dee's Organic Farm experienced something beyond bizarre. Yep, you
guessed it: my trusty, junior photographer and I went over to the
farm to get an exclusive interview with Mac Dee Dee. Upon arriving,
Daniel and I were astounded by what we saw: five dead cows were lying
in the pasture, dead. Something happened with the chickens too: at
least a dozen chickens were lying on the ground, blood sucked out of
their bodies through small holes on their abdomens. Mac Dee Dee is
quoted for saying, “I heard some noise last night from the cows,
and later the chickens. They seemed to be in a panic. I figured they
were just spooked by a noisy car driving past with the boombox on too
loud, so I went back to sleep . . . [but once I] woke up, I found
otherwise.” He went on to explain that he nearly fainted from shock
when he discovered what happened to his cattle and chickens. He
called his wife, Jules to come have a look. “I'm just glad the cows
and chickens that died were meat animals, meaning we were going to
kill and sell the meat anyway.”
“We had something like this happen to a farm belonging to a
neighbor when we were living in Texas,” Jules says. “Two cows
were sucked dry of blood and they were sure it was the Chupacabra
that did it. Our cows that were killed show the telltale signs of a
Chupacabra attack, but Chupacabra attacks have never been reported
this far north!”
Jules was right. A Chupacabra attack in New York (the farm's not too
far from Animal Adventures Inc.) is unheard of until now. Mac
Dee Dee took Daniel and I to see the dead cows. Man! Did they smell!
But I saw what I was looking for: a pair of holes – bite marks –
in the cows' necks where the blood was drained out. Daniel took the
photo above.
So does the Chupacabra exist? Is it possible something else is
responsible for the livestocks' deaths? I put that question to the
resident zoologist at AAI., Dr. Arizona Stevenson. When asked
what she thought about the Chupacabra, she was quoted for saying,
“Many people have seen the creature over the years. Unlike many
other cryptids, the Chupacabra has allegedly been photographed by
people who've claimed to have seen it.” At this point in the
conversation, Arizona brought out a photograph of what was supposedly
the dead corpse of the Chupacabra. It showed a dog-like creature with
no fur. For a second, I thought why on earth people could doubt the
existence of such a creature that has been thoroughly photographed;
and not just blurry photographs either! It was a clear picture.
Arizona asked us what we thought it was and Daniel and I both replied
that it must be the Chupacabra. Arizona shook her head. “Actually,
that's what the people who photographed it thought it was too. But it
turns out that this is really a coyote with a condition known as
mange.” The scientist told me that mange is a disease that some
dogs catch and it results in the animal loosing its fur. Without the
fur, it looks extremely different! “Many alleged Chupacabra
sightings are actually of a coyote or other member of the canine
family with mange.”
Of course, I respect Dr. Arizona's opinion and to an extent, I agree
with her. But, you also have to remember that not only are there
other Chupacabra sightings that aren't so easily shrugged off as
coyotes with mange, but also the numerous livestock killings. Whether
or not the Chupacabra exists, something is either snatching
away and/or killing livestock. I for one contend that the Chupacabra
exists, but we've yet to find it. After all, we don't know everything
about the world we live in.
“I definitely believe in the Chupacabra,” says Mac Dee Dee. “Even
though there hasn't been any real physical evidence for it [yet], as
the old saying goes, 'Absence of evidence isn't evidence of
absence'.”
