This is not a chupacabra

It's a malnourished primate with partial alopecia, discovered in Henan Province, China and given food.  Had it been seen in Texas, it probably would have been shot as a "chupacabra."

  1. It's NOT a monkey, although it is a primate. Looks like a loris.

  2. Had it been shot in Texas, the family would all take their photos with it as some sort of grand accomplishment and posted it on the internet with great pride.

  3. Texas or not, I'd probably reach for my gun if I saw that approaching out of the night. Yuck. Hopefully it's in good hands and looking better these days.
