A man living north of San Antonio says he has quite the animal sitting in his freezer -- and it may be a mythical chupacabra.
Jerry Ayer, a teacher at the Blanco Taxidermy School in Blanco, Texas, told TV station KSAT that he's never seen anything like it. "Different, that’s for sure, very interesting," said Ayer.
The find comes amid a number of strange sightings in the area. The animal is gray in color with leathery, hairless skin and large fangs. "The front legs seem to be a little bit longer than a typical coyote, very irregular and never seen any that have legs like that," said Ayer. . .
Paraguayans have hailed a "miracle" after a grieving father opened his baby son's coffin and discovered that the infant was still alive hours after doctors pronounced him dead.

Hospital orderlies delivered the premature baby's body, which had been placed in a temporary coffin, to Mr Alvarenga's home fours hours later.

According to police reports, Florida detectives were doing online investigations this past July.
They discovered that Keith Griffin,48, allegedly downloaded over 1000 pictures of child pornography. Some of the victims were as young as eight years old.
Deputies did what deputies do, and searched Griffins home and interviewed him. Police say that Mr. Griffin told them that he often left the room whenever he was downloading music, and upon his return, lo and behold, there would be these strange images on his computer. He stated his cat would jump on his computer keyboard and downloa. . .

Nobody else was cleaning up the litter and overgrowth in the scrappy Greenfield section known as The Run, so Paul McCarthy decided to do it himself.
But the little heaps of trash and brush he left on the sidewalk, and occasionally by the curb, along Saline Street and Second Avenue prompted a Redd Up dust up when he and city workers disagreed on the rules.
Now he faces a rare, possibly unique, city citation for leaving debris on streets and sidewalks that will bring him before a district judge and could subject him to an unspecified fine.

The scene at the beginning where these things look like they are climbing the cliff looks clearly fake to me...
Later on in the video though, they start physically interacting with the thing.
The end is freaky and highly suspect.
However, in the spirit of sharing, I thought I would post it and see what better minds than mine have to say. . . .

A man has climbed up a BBC building using a pair of vacuum gloves he built himself, in a stunt for a new BBC One science show.
Inventor Jem Stansfield, the presenter of Bang Goes The Theory, used an everyday vacuum cleaner to construct the kit.
He scaled the 40m (120ft) high BBC White City building in west London, watched by hundreds of people.
This stunt was carried out by trained professionals following strict safety procedures and should not be attempted or replicated.. . .

When autopsy results came back on a 16-year-old Orinda boy who died at a house party where teenagers had been drinking, two findings took investigators by surprise.
Joseph Loudon's blood-alcohol level was only 0.03 percent, which was low considering reports that hard liquor seemed to be in ample supply at the May 23 party, held at the home of a friend who lived on the same street as Joseph's mother. A 0.08 percent level constitutes drunken driving.
And his body showed high levels of papaverine, a prescription medication commonly used to treat erectile dysfunction.

What attracts us to the British couple whose joint assisted suicide has set off a firestorm of criticism?
Sir Edward Downes was a British conductor; his wife, Lady Joan, was a former ballerina, choreographer and TV producer. They were educated and prominent--but last week they chose to end their lives, hand in hand, via assisted suicide at a Zurich clinic. They left no explanation; what's known is that, at 85, Sir Edward was almost blind and increasingly deaf; Lady Joan, at 74, may have received a diagnosis of terminal cancer.
Their adult children issued a statement: "After 54 . . .

Those purchasing a vehicle at Max Motors in Missouri will receive an AK-47 assault rifle with their purchase during the month of August. This is the second consecutive year the dealership has given away vouchers for a firearm as part of a sales promotion.
The logo at Mark Muller's dealership is a nod to his feelings about guns - with an old west caricature pointing two pistols at those who pass by. He said it's a nod to what he calls "big city" ways. "We really are different than the big city dealers," Muller said.
