The Chupacabra is a creature that has been sighted
all over the world but the most sightings have been in South America and
Puerto Rico. It is somewhat human in appearance, has fangs and has spines
along its back. It has wings that are said to be seven feet wide. The
Chupacabra or goat sucker is four feet tall and is tailless. It has two
long arms that end in claws. There are varied descriptions of it
resembling something that is crossed between an ape, human and bird. It
has the fangs and stomach of a vampire and is as agile and strong as a
panther.
No one is sure where it came from but it has been responsible for many
deaths of goats and other animals. Just like vampires, the
Chupacabra drinks the animal's blood. Animal carcasses have been found
completely drained from their blood. There are many reports of seeing
something resembling the description of the Chupacabra just before the
dead animals were found. Many authorities believe that the Chupacabra
might be a very large species of bat, but eye witnesses do not believe
this. There are bats that do drink the blood from animals, such as cows,
but they are not as large as the reported sightings of the Chupacabra.
It is reported that these creatures live in underground caves and only
come out at night. Lately there have been a few reports of a similar
creature attacking animals in the Miami area of Florida.
