In an article appearing on the elpasotimes.com, another story about a potential chupacabra attack emerges. Juan Miranda and Cesar Garcia, two men residing in Horizon City, Texas are blaming a chupacabra attack for the death of 30 of their chickens.
Miranda and Garcia have been living in Horizon City since they moved to the location from Chicago three years ago. According to the two men, their rabbits are presently hiding, the cat would not come down off the roof of their home for the entire weekend, their roosters did not crow and their dog did not bark, yet they discovered 20 chickens dead.
Garcia explained that he awoke on Saturday morning to find the 20 chickens had been killed, but that it was especially strange because there was no blood around the inside of the chicken coop. The chickens were all laying dead in a large pile. Garcia reasons that if it were a dog or some other animal that had been responsible for killing the chickens that there would have been a lot more blood and a far bigger mess. Yet, no human is responsible for the attack either, because Garcia photographed some strange tracks by the chicken coop that were clearly not human. The wounds found in each chicken appeared to be two small holes poked through their backs. The tracks were clearly consisting of a heel and paw. The men followed the tracks past their home, over a fence, and four blocks away before the tracks just seemingly disappeared.
On Sunday morning 10 more dead chickens were found dead inside a different chicken coop, and they were all killed in the same fashion. Miranda was surprised that none of the three dogs that they own barked to notify the family of any kind of intruder. According to the director of the Paso Del Norte Paranormal Society, Henry Flores, the paranormal investigative group researched the chupacabra in the northeast El Paso as well as in Chaparral. The team is now thinking of expanding their research to include the Horizon City region.
In the mid 1990s the first reports of the Chupacabra, otherwise called goat sucker, was reported in Puerto Rico. Following the first report, additional reports of chupacabra attacks began cropping up in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, and the United States. The creature is commonly described as either having a reptilian appearance with a greenish colored skin that is scaly, and sometimes it is described as having sharp quills or spines on its back. Sometimes the creature is described as having a panther like face, large fangs, and a forked tongue. Some say that the chupacabra hisses and/or screeches when it has been alarmed and that it also leaves behind a bizarre, sulfuric odor. Meanwhile, other reports describe the chupacabra as appearing to be like a hairless dog with fangs. The creature is believed to feed on a variety of animals and not just goats; it is said that it will feed on birds, chickens, dogs, and horses too, sucking out their blood and sometimes organs too.
