First Images Taken Of Chupacabras?

After analyzing the digital image, it was established that the shadow corresponds to a being with thse characteristics.

The "Chupacabras" phenomenon has become one of the most important mysteries of recent years in Calama and in the country. The stories and experiences of many people who have seen animals die in bizarre fashion have caused many researchers to become devoted almost exclusively to the subject.

Newspapers, magazines and TV shows have devoted considerable space in an effort to solve the enigma. However, a true image of the creature has never been presented. For this reason it was always spoken of in terms of a myth, or something unknown.

However, researcher Jaime Ferrer, known in Calama and in other latitudes, presented to this newspaper as an exclusive what may be the first audiovisual take of the Chupacabras.

According to his own version, the tape was presented on the Mega network's "La Ley de la Selva" program. However, the strange being's presence was not noticed during the original screening.

"The image was presented to show the site whre some attacks had occurred (Codao, Peumo, Sixth Region). After a while, researcher and TV producer Claudio Ojeda Asmussen, noticed that there was a strange shadow moving among the bushes at the site."

After analyzing the image over three months and through the use of modern computer software, "it was established that [the shadow] was that of an unknown animal, in other words, the Chupacabras, thus becoming the most important piece of audiovisual evidence in the field of cryptozoology in recent years."

According to background information supplied by Ferrer, the creature has strange characteristics. Its stride resembles that of an ape, but traits of other animals can be seen in its structure, such as a feline, a dog, and even some sort of "hoses" that dangle from its muzzle and through which "it would drain the blood of animals," explained the ufologist from the El Loa region.

Ferrer explained that "Claudio Ojeda is the intellectual autor of this discovery, as well as of the complex digital analysis performed on the recording. He called me, since he knows my research. I attest to the truthfulness of the recording and to the earnesty of his work."

"This represents a very important step in clarifying this phenomenon. Here we have a creature that is on the surface of the earth, captured on videotape, and not a figment of the imagination or a tall tale.".

UFO Testament: Anatomy of an Abductee
  - Raymond Fowler

This book entails the life of one who has not only become internationally respected as a UFO investigator and author but now as a so-called UFO abductee. It is strikingly different from other works dealing with UFO abductions in that it will provide an overview of the complete life of an abductee from early childhood to sunset years of his life. The exciting descriptions of UFO sightings, investigations and documentation would be worthy of a book themselves. The Chief Scientific Consultant for the USAF UFO Project Bluebook, Astronomer Dr. Hynek is on record as stating: 'Raymond Fowler…whose meticulous and detailed investigations …far exceed the investigations of Bluebook.' However, this book is about much more than investigating UFO sightings. Throughout the warp and weft of the author’s UFO and paranormal experiences is the slow but sure realization that he has been investigated since childhood by the very phenomenon he was investigating!
