Default Chupacabra found in Texas?

Anyone think that is what they actually found? or do you think that it is something else, some new species?

The animal found by Canion was determined to be a grey fox suffering from an extreme case of mange. - Wikipedia

Basically it was supposed to be a legendairy animal in south and central america that would suck the blood out of other animals.. the name translates to "Goat sucker", they were never know if they actualy exsist, they are one of those animals like Big Foot, and the Lock Ness Monster, people claim to have seen them but have no viable proof that they exist.

I live in Texas, so this was in ALL the local papers and stuff. What fiirk said is pretty much right. It's mostly a legend spread among farmers who claim to lose lots of livestock and find them there whole, just with all the blood sucked out.
