Earlier this week I was flipping channels and stopped on the History channel. They had a program called In Search of Monsters or something like that. They were doing a program on reports of animals/monsters that were killing chickens, goats etc and sucking the blood from them. This was a really slow TV night so I watched for a few minutes. One part was about a monster type that was reported in Puerto Rico that supposedly walked upright etc. I kind of got the idea that this was an offspring of bigfoot and draculla. Then it got interesting. They went to south Texas and started reporting on an animal that was killing chickens and goats. From what I remember it covered a pretty large area down around the border, more than one animal would have as a territory. It seemed that they started showing up around 1995 in both Texas and
PR. It had several eye wittness accounts and then one guy had pictures and another had a skeleton of one that he had shot raiding his chicken house. They had an expert come in and look at the skeleton and he was puzzled. Then they talked to some woman who owned a ranch, had seen one there and had collected a head from a road kill and put it in the freezer. She gave it to the experts and they were showing it on film. The pictures looked kind of like a dog that had larger legs in the back and practically no hair. It was a kind of blue color and when they showed the head it had a nasty set of dentures. All the evidence was going to a lab for DNA etc. About that time some neighbors came to visit and I missed the last of the show. My question, did anyone see the end of the show? Where has this animal been all these years or where did it come from? If it is a new species how come we haven't heard about it on the news? We hear about all the animals that are going extinct.
