The Chupacabra is one of the
most recent creatures of cryptozoology, first seen during the early
1990s in Puerto Rico. El Chupacabra, Chupacabras or Goat Sucker is a
creature native to the Americas, particularly the island where it
was first reported, Mexico, and the United States, although this
being has been reported in other Latin American communities.
Goat sucker is the literal
translation to the Spanish word Chupacabra, the name given to the
creature after being reported as a winged being, with the habit of
attacking and drinking the blood of goats and livestock. Like occurs
with other cryptids, the Chupacabra is described in different way
after the sightings in Puerto Rico. From the North Carolinas in the
United States to the south of Chile bordering with Argentina, the
Chupacabra was a lonely single creature flying from one location to
another, until the reports of attacks revealed that there is more
than one creature in the area.
Once again, the scientists
consider the Chupacabra a legendary creature, born from modern urban
legends, but nobody can explain how and who attacked animals in the
way the Chupacabra is described to attack. In early 1992, the first
reports were considered human acts of Satanism or a similar cult.
Later, it was said that a sort of primitive vampire was responsible
for the killings of many different types of goats, and other
animals, including birds, dogs, cows and horses. All dead animals
were found with one pattern in common, they all had two puncture
holes on their necks and they were totally drained of blood.
Mass hysteria began when the
lack of blood was accompanied by mutilations and the reports outside
Puerto Rico were more frequent. Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia,
El Salvador, Panama, Peru, Brazil, Dominican Republic, and the
United States were the preferred target of the Chupacabra before
making Mexico its second home. After being considered a vampire or
"macho cabrio", the Chupacabra was considered a type of Alien until
the continuous sightings gave it specific forms of appearance. The
Chupacabra is supposed to be a wallaby-like being, a strange breed
of wild dog, or the most common, a lizard-like creature with
greenish-gray skin and sharp spines running down its back.
In 2001 a Chupacabra's
corpse was found in Nicaragua supporting the conclusion that it is
simply a strange breed of wild dog, but in recent years the tracks
of a winged-like being were found in Mexico. This finding shows a
creature as it was originally described in the 1990s, but without
the corpse, this proof makes no evidence for scientists.
There is a website that
describes this and numerous other creatures of Cryptozoology in
detail. The website is called: Unknown Creatures, and may be found
