Chupacabras

At the present time, there is a lot of interest in a creature known as a Chupacabra. The Spanish word means “goat sucker.” Most reports come from Puerto Rico or South America.

It was given this name because it sucks blood from the bodies of the animals that it attacks. Chupacabras do not attack people, but when they get into a house they can cause a lot of damage. Fortunately, attacks are rare.

Recently in Puerto Rico, a Chupacabra got into a house, and among the things it tore up was a stuffed teddy bear.

A common belief is that Chupacabras are a kind of alien pet that may have escaped from a UFO.

DNA (blood tests) show that the Chupacabras are mammals of unknown origin. They resemble aliens and ghosts because they seem to be able to walk through walls. They can suddenly appear out of nowhere and can disappear just as quickly.

Descriptions of the Chupacabras vary. Some reports make them seem strange but cute. They are described as short with small fangs. Other people report seeing a dangerous large ugly creature with wings and huge fangs.
