A report from Mexico's southernmost state is raising speculation among the region's residents that the legend of the Chupacabras lives on. According to the article, translated by the Institute of Hispanic UFOlogy's Scott Corrales, there haven't been any reports of Chupacabras activity in the region since 1999. Now a number of exsanguinated sheep have been found with bite marks that don't match the bite marks of any animals known to inhabit or pass through the region. Authorities confirm the sheep were all drained of blood, apparently through holes in their necks. There's more cryptid reporting from the Hispanic community today, too, as Javier Resines reveals an item from the newpaper archives and seeks information about a strange sea beast in the Straits of Gibraltar spotted by numerous observers, as detailed in Spain: A Sea Monster in Tarifa (1955). And, in another tale of a briny beast no one can identify, Loren Coleman pulls up another archived report in Sea Serpent Off Boston. Meanwhile, Dr. Beachcombing nets a reference to manlike creatures from the sea in an early 18th century book that tells of the capture of one of the merfolk in Catching Mermaids on Man. Elsewhere, cryptozoologist Ken Gerhard, co-author with Nick Redfern of Monsters in Texas, lectured on the search for unknown animals February 18, 2011, in North Austin, TX, as reported, with video, inMonsters in Texas? S.A. Man: Some Things I Can't Explain.
