Chupacabra Captured?
Status: Undetermined
Posted on YouTube, a news report from Coleman, Texas, talks of a creature (described as "A mix between a hairless dog, a rat, and a kangaroo") that has been trapped by a farmer. The farmer had set the trap after some of his turkeys and chickens had been killed.The animal has been sent to Texas Parks and Wildlife in the hope that they can discover what exactly it is.
