What is El Chupacabra?
El Chupacabra - Means "the goat sucker" in
Spanish.
Named because of the way it sucked all the blood
from Puerto Rican goats, the Chupacabra has been
leaving fear in its tracks for many years now.
First spotted in Puerto Rico in 1994, the
Chupacabra has since migrated off the island and
has recently been spotted in many locations
including South America as well as the US. Although
it was named because of its choice of goat-blood as
a meal, the Chupacabra has reportedly attacked and
devoured the blood of a wide variety of animals
including dogs and sheep. As far as we know, there
have yet to be any human fatalities.
Due to the distinct technique the strange animal has
of killing its prey, it is very easy to tell if the
Chupacabra was involved in an animals death.
Animals are found with puncture wounds in their
neck and most of their blood removed. Often, the
victim's organs have disappeared even though the
only wound is a small hole in the animal's neck.
Reports of laser-like cuts on the victim's ears are
also common.
Although some people say they have seen the
Chupacabra's tracks, in many cases there are no
signs of blood or tracks around the dead animals.
