If you thought the Cuero chupacabra mystery was solved, think again.
Despite DNA testing by Texas State University, the backwoods beast identity is still in doubt. Phylis Canion's back to poking and prodding her prize possession, digging up more muscle tissue. Ever since the initial DNA testing, Canion says scientists from across the nation have been hounding her for a more accurate match.
They want another sample taken from the animal that's had haunted her ranch, and this time, experts want a back molar.
So Canion's playing amateur dentist and extracting the tooth from the beast's mouth to be sent to the University of California at Davis' veterinary school.
