El Chupacabra





The writer of TravelSouth (2011) states: The Chupacabra or Chupacabras is a creature said to inhabit parts of the Americas. It was first found in Puerto Rico, then Mexico, and America. TravelSouth (2011) says that the legend of los Chupacabras began in about 1992, when Puerto Rican newspapers El Vocero and El Nuevo Dia began reporting the killings of many different types of animals, such as birds, horses, and as its name implies, goats.  El Chupacabra basically kills and sucks the blood out of animals and people if it has the chance to.
TravelSouth (2011) found that at the time it was known as El Vampiro de Moca since some of the first killings occurred in the small town of Moca. At first they thought that the killings were done randomly by some members of a devil worshiping group, but the killings spread around the island, and many farms reported many losses of animal life. The killings had only had one pattern in common: each of the animals found dead had two punctured holes around their necks (TravelSouth, 2011).
TravelSouth (2011) found; Soon after the animal deaths in Puerto Rico, other animal deaths were reported in other countries, such as the Dominican Republic, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, El Salvador, Panama, Peru, Brazil, the United States and, most notably, Mexico. In both Puerto Rico and Mexico, the Chupacabra got to an amazing status. The stories were reported multiple times in both America and Mexico. I wonder whether these things could be real! They could be either an all new species or some sort of alien species all together! It would be amazing to see and study the Chupacabra. I sure am glad I don’t live there!
