What are Chupacabras?

In: Cryptids and Legendary Creatures [Edit categories]

Answer:

Chupacabras are mythical beasts that pop in Central America, Mexico, Puerto Rico, New Mexico, and other rural areas of southern states. The "sightings" are usually proved to be coyotes with mange or hairless raccoons, but the myth has many different variations on it's appearance. 'Victims" are usually goats with strange fang wounds that have drained the blood out of them.
