Among the most popular monsters of the decade, El Chupacabra come first far before Nessie, it's toughest rival. El Chuapcabra, which mean "Goat Sucker", is the biggest terror of central american farmers. In region formed by the southern USA, Mexico, central Amreica, Porto-Rico and Brasil among other, seeing a report of a sheep, a chicken or a cow dead because all it's blood was drained is as common as a murder in a big city. Sightings come by tons, and people there fear it like pest. But what's a Chupacabra?
El Chupacabra is a strange looking animal that we can't tell without error it's origin. It have alien's red eyes, 2 small holes as nostrils, spikes on the head and back and sometime's said to have wings. It's legs are the ones of a dog (with huge claws), but it walk like as kangaroo, allowing it to make 20 feet in a single bound. It's body's covered by a black hair. Mix all this and you'll get a Chupacabra. Many reports talk about a very unpleasant odor. It is also said to change color, like a chameleon; in the dark, it will change to black or a deep brown colour - in a sunlit area surrounded by vegetation, it changes to green, green-grey, light brown or beige. Explications about it are numerous, going from the aliens animals who camed here with aliens as pets, for study or who were released in our planet by some evil race with intension to take the world. Other says that there are genetically created monsters by some experience, by the NASA among other. Many people think this is just an urban legend, too. But an urban legend who kill continuously the livestock (and we have photos ot this) is a living legend.
Actually, there are 2 or 3 reports of killed Chupacabras, and one of a Chupacabra caught alive. This the one of a men who get it and put it in a cage. Because he didn't wanted to show it to the TV teams, it's hard to believe in. He only accorded to investigators inside of it's home to see it. Among the reports of killed Chupas, there is a Brasilian one where 2 fishers saw something going out of a lake. They fired on it and when the morning come, they realized that they got a Chupacabra. They cutted it's head and showed it, but refused to let people make analysis on it. Looking bad... The other case occur while a farmer fired on something who terrorized it's livestock. Later, when his partner came to saw him, he found the carcass and it appeared to be a Chupacabra.
Beside of these unsure "specimens", there are thousands of sightings of El Chupa, and thousands of dead and mutilated animals. They come by tons, and are easy to find all around the net. I let you go for them. They're found in an area going from Brasil, Central America, Mexico, Porto Rico, Texas, Nevada, New-Mexico, and even Massachussetts and Maine. Urban Legend or not, El Chupacabra is the perfect beast to strike fear and clear doubts about the fact that our planet's exploration isn't over.
