Controversial Ft. Worth Star Telegram article about the Chupacabra
"Reporter" Bud Kennedy of the Ft. Worth Star Telegram, used the excuse of
doing a story about the chupacaba we have on display, to trash the Mt.
Blanco Fossil Museum. He quoted a woman with a Spanish last name who said
she was insulted. How I don't know. I called Mr. Kennedy for her contact
info and he went on to tell me there was no such thing as a chupacabra and
that my whole museum was a fraud. Had he ever been here? No, his mind was
made up. I was just some worthless "religous" museum. No example of fraud was
given. He said no scientist believes in the "chupacabra". And apparently,
the fact that I took the fresh carcass to a major forensic lab for
scientists to examine didn't matter. His closed mind was made up. I told him
he was a racists and a bigot for saying all the Mexicans who have come in to
see the chupacabra were idiots for believing in them. It's no longer a myth.
He also stated in his stupid article that the chupacabra is SIX feet tall. I
never said any such thing. It is clear that the animal is some sort of canid.
We hope the lab results will tell us what it is finally. It is really
pathetic what passes for reporting today.
