What do you think what animal that could be?
I don't think it is a chupacarbra. Is this a fake?
I dont see how it could be animated?
Is this some sort of hybrid?

It's not an animal. It's CG.

Chupacabras are of the bullshittius phonius family, which also includes Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster.

I highly doubt it though.
The lighting is just right along with the quality of the animal matching the video itself.
Im not saying it is not, but It would be a pretty good animation if so.

k, so next time you watch something like Iron Man, you can be assured it's totally real.

Are you implying that Iron Man isn't real? :hmph:

It's footage of an alien animation embedded into another video.

If it's good CG that's to be expected, surely?
Not much point in trying to pass it off as "real" if the CG is obvious. :wink:

Plus, consider the action: would a real animal, presumably in some fear of being captured, and on being disturbed - actually run (rather nonchalantly) across an open doorway in full view and pause to look out of it?
The second sequence makes about as much sense: why run across an exposed area of that length when there is a wooded (or at least, darker) area available behind it?

I like it when people claim that footage of something must be real because it looks too realistic to be CG. Take it from a geek who’s watched way too many behind the scenes documentaries from DVD extras: you would be shocked at how much CGI is in a typical movie that’s so realistic you don’t even know it’s CG until someone points it out.

Don't get comfortable. Judging by my past relationships, you'll hate me within the next two weeks.

Yes. Apart from the "too cinematic" presentation there are also a couple of visible mistakes in the CG.
At 00:52 the animal apparently passes behind a post - but doesn't reappear on the other side on the edge of the post: it appears after a gap.
At 00:55 it passes in front of a post in the foreground, where it should have been behind it.

I don't have a clue what the little CG thing is but I think I successfully identified the other two as the lesser spotted bad-actorus...

Some sort of mischievous, outer-space gremlin.
