CHUPACABRA - A LIVING VAMPIRE

From chupar "to suck" and cabra "goat", literally "goat sucker", it is reportedly rumored to inhabit parts of America .. It is associated more recently with sightings of an allegedly unknown animal in Puerto Rico(where these sightings were first reported), Mexico, and the United States, especially in the latter's  Latin american communities. The name comes from the animal's reported habit of attacking and drinking the blood of livestock, especially goats. Physical descriptions of the creature vary. Eyewitness sightings have been claimed as early as 1995 in Puerto Rico, and have since been reported as far north as Maine, and as far south as Chile.
 It is supposedly a heavy creature, the size of a small bear, with a row of spines reaching from the neck to the base of the tail.The first reported attacks occurred in March 1995 in Puerto Rico In this attack, eight sheep were discovered dead, each with three puncture wounds in the chest area and completely drained of blood.
In April 2006, MosNews reported that the chupacabras was spotted in Russia for the first time. Reports from Central Russia beginning in March 2005 tell of a beast that kills animals and sucks out their blood. Thirty-two turkeys were killed and drained overnight. Reports later came from neighboring villages when 30 sheep were killed and had their blood drained. Finally, eyewitnesses were able to describe the chupacabras. In May 2006, experts were determined to track the animal down.


In September 2009, CNN aired a report showing closeup video footage of an unidentified dead animal. The same CNN report stated that locals have begun speculating the possibility that this might be a chupacabras. A Blanco, Texas, taxidermist reported that he received the body from a former student whose cousin had discovered the animal in his barn, where it had succumbed to poison left out for rodents. The taxidermist expressed his belief that this is a genetically mutated coyote.
