The Chupacabra

The Chupacabra is an enigmatic creature that has been sighted extensively throughout Latin America and United States. "Chupacabra" means "goatsucker" in Spanish and some people believe that it is associated with unexplained attacks on farm animals and pets, most of which take place at night in rural areas. Entering into a farm under the cover of darkness, the Chupacabra uses its long, thin red tongue to suck blood from the necks of freshly-killed goats.

The Chupacabra is most frequently described as 'kangaroo-like' with large fangs on its upper jaw and small upper limbs with three big claws. It reportedly uses its powerful hind legs to leap long distances. Small winglike membranes under its arms are thought to help it glide through the air towards its victims. Its fur is short and brown and helps it blend in with its surroundings. Most sightings report that the Chupacabra has long greenish spines or quills that run from the back of its head all the way down to its short stubby tail. Its large eyes are said to glow bright red, and may be capable of exerting a hypnotic effect on humans who gaze into them

Some people believe the Chupacabra arrived on Earth as an alien's pet. Others suggest that it is the result of a genetic engineering experiment that went wrong. It first appeared in the mountains of Puerto Rico, but has also been seen in Mexico, Nicaragua, Chile and other countries. The Chupacabra is thought to live in underground burrows or caves.

Nobody has ever captured a Chupacabra.
