Cryptozoology: yea or nay?

Welcome to the General Discussion area where just about anything goes! This area is designed to discuss all matters and does not necessarily have to be Transformers related. Please keep topics relevant.

Wow that old? Really? I had no idea it had been around for that long, no wonder it's so blury! It is rather crazy people still argue about it.

Wow, the alleged Chupacabra looks nothing like artists renditions. I suppose if something ever was found, it wouldn't be as embelished as what others think they saw. I know if I was scared out of my wits if I ever encountered some weird creature, I might see it as different than it really was.

Fair enough, but that excludes Loch Ness.

Thank you.


And those eyewitness pics don't mean that's exactly what it looked like. And those renders are obviously imaginative in nature.

Those photographs are actually close enough to the drawings to be a realistic version of them.


Tangent wrote:That's just a manky wolf/dog. Or someone shaved it.


Exactly. That's what chupacabra is. That manky wolf dog is what people have been calling chupacabra. Why does everything have to be crazy and exagerrated like those renders?

This is cryptozoology at work right here. The human imagination will come up with something much more amazing than what the real occurance was.

It's actually kind of tragic. We have solved the mystery of the chupacabra, but people will continue to deny it because the real answer isn't as exciting as the legends.
Buy my RiD toys! They're awesome, I promise!!!!

Yes it does......but it doesnt exclued Champ or the many others that have been reported.I for one think its more likely a long necked whale.

Thank you..

I agree here as well....Even if there was something there long ago it could not have lived this long with out a food source but there have been reports of some underwater caves where they may find some remains.

Again we agree....I never thought he was much more then a K-9 large rodent hybrid.

Thats always the case with all myseries.
