Some people in the southeast Texas town say the creature is a chupacabra -- a mythical creature sporting large fangs that sucks blood from its prey.

A veterinarian said the animal could be a fox, coyote, or even a mixed dog.

Testing is under way to identify the animal.

Meanwhile, similar mystery animals have been found in Texas and elsewhere in the United States.

Earlier this year, a South Texas rancher shot and killed a creature that had reportedly been attacking his livestock.

That mystery animal looked very similar to the one just found in Lufkin.

Also this year, another unknown creature caused quite a sensation in Maryland.
