So why do false 'chupacabra' reports persist?

It was only a matter of time: Another chupacabra sighting has been reported in Latin America.
The blood-sucking chupacabras, much like the cats they are sometimes said to feed upon, seem to have nine lives. Despite being more or less definitively disproven in recent years, people continue to report seeing the beast — most recently in the early morning hours of March 1 in the Mexican state of Michoacan, when a rancher reported that 35 sheep were killed in their enclosure.
Though details are (as always) sketchy, video of the scene shows many of the animals dead or dying, and the bloody throat of one sheep in particular appears to be cut or torn out. The bodies reportedly had tooth marks and claw marks, and an eyewitness described the mysterious attacker as having fangs, claws and wings. (He didn't explain why he couldn't get a better description of it, nor why it was able to kill three dozen animals before he noticed it.) Perhaps significantly, the sheep enclosure also contained cows and horses that were not attacked.
