Chupacabra the Goatsucker Vampire Sightings Reported in Central Russia

For the first time in history, the mysterious Puerto-Rican Chupacabra vampire has been spotted in Russia.

Reports of a beast that kills animals and sucks on their blood came from a village in Central Russia back in March 2005, when a farm had 32 turkeys killed overnight. The beast left the corpses bloodless, the Komsomolskaya Pravda daily said.

Then reports came from neighboring villages, where more than 30 sheep and goats fell victim to the vampire. Again, the blood had been drained from corpses but the flesh remained intact. All the slaughtered animals had similar puncture wounds on their necks, different from the marks that wolves, dogs or lynx leave on their victims.

Finally, eyewitness descriptions match the traditional description of the Chupacabra, said to resemble a kangaroo and a dog with huge teeth.

“I heard the sheep bleating loudly, and when I approached the barn I saw a black shadow, like a big dog standing on its hind legs. It leaped like a kangaroo — when it spotted me it ran away,” says Yerbulat Isbasov, 18, who guards sheep in the village of Gavrilovka.
Yerbulat saw the beast again in a few days’ time, and described it as a 1.2 meter high animal with a hump on its back.

Alfia Makasheva saw a whole pack of vampires in her yard.

“One was a huge reddish thing, another was dark grey, and they were being followed by a pack of pups. In the middle of the yard the red one turned its head and got up on the hind legs, as if it was thinking.”

When Dmitry Madinovsky from Orenburg heard about the beast, he suggested it could be the legendary Chupakabra, and set off to look for it. In the woods near the Sakmara river he discovered two rows of tracks that could belong to an animal of some 35 kilos in weight. The tracks were of five-toed paws with claws and webbed fingers, and a tail that dragged between them. Zoologists could not identify the animal from photos of the prints.

“It is definitely a Chupakabra! Small front and big hind legs,” Madinovsky says. “The animal first walked on all fours, near the water it got up on its hind legs, raised its tail and leapt away like a kangaroo.”

This May Madinovsky and the Urals Anomaly Monitoring Station experts are determined to track the animal down.

Experts sink teeth into goat-sucker

Goat-sucker stories have circulated for centuries





By Central American correspondent Peter Greste

For centuries, Central Americans have spoken of a mysterious and terrible vampire-like creature that roams the countryside, slaying livestock by sucking out their blood.
The chupacabra creatures are said to attack their victims at night, leaving a trail of carcasses with their throats torn out.
_912942_goat-sucker.jpg

These remains are said to be of a chupacabra


Despite the stories, and many people's unshakeable belief in the chupacabras, nobody has ever been able to find any material evidence - until now.
A farmer in Nicaragua claims to have shot and killed one of the creatures as it attacked his own flock of goats.
The farmer Jose Luis Talavera described how he staked out his ranch one night after at least 70 sheep and goats had been drained of blood and saw two chupacabras among the flock.
"We shot at them in the distance," he said.


"We hit one and wounded it, but they both ran away before we could catch them."
He described the creature as having the naked skin of a bat, and a head like a bull, with a crocodile-like crest running down its neck.
Evidence

Mr Talavera said he later found the decaying skeleton in the mouth of a cave near his farm outside Malpaisillo, a rural town about 45 kilometres north-west of Managua, and handed it over to the local authorities for examination.
Now, zoologists like Edmundo Torres, of the National Autonomous University of Nicaragua. have given their verdict.
"It's a dog, without any room for doubt," he said.
"This is a common dog. There are no fangs or anything that could suck blood," according to another university official, Dr Carlos Alberto Gomez.

The explanation has not satisfied Mr Talavera, though.
"The animal that was discovered in that rural zone was different from a mere dog," he insisted.
"Its teeth were rose-coloured and it reared up on its hind legs to suck the blood from at least 120 sheep."
Omen
Others in the region too have spoken darkly of what the coming of the chupacabra means.
One protestant preacher Francisco Ortiz said the creature was a "wake-up call" heralding the end of the world.

Its a signal to men and women that we're going home to God

Francisco Ortiz
"The light is yellow, but it could change to red at any moment," he said.
"Its a signal to men and women that we're going home to God."
However, a local feminist group that has been encouraging women to raise their own sheep to win financial independence had its own theory.
The group suggested that a Nicaraguan patriarchy unleashed the creature to hold on to power.
Anthropologists say the legend of the mysterious chupacabras is centuries old, and spans the length of the Andes and Central America.
Local believers have blamed all manner of ills on the creature, from losses of livestock to bad fortune. Despite the official verdict about the latest discovery, many are still convinced that the chupacabras are very much alive and very dangerous.

Name:
Chupacabra
Definition of name:
Goat Sucker
Height:
Approx. 1 Meter
Weight:
Between 18-50 lbs.
Found in:
South America, Mexico, Southern US, Puerto Rico

EL CHUPACBRA, the name translates literally from Spanish as "Goat-Sucker". It comes from the creature's reported habit of attacking and drinking the blood of livestock. Physical descriptions of the creature vary. Sightings began in Puerto Rico in the early 1990's and have since been reported as far north as the Carolinas, and as far south as Chile. However, it is predated by El Vampiro de Moca (The Vampire of Moca), a creature blamed for similar killings that occurred in the small town of Moca in the 1970's
In 1992 Puerto Rican newspapers El Vocero and El Nuevo Dia reported the killings of many different types of animals, such as birds, horses, and as its name implies, goats. While at first it was suspected that the killings were done randomly by some members of a Satanic group, eventually these killings spread around the island, and many farms reported loss of animal life. The killings had only one pattern in common: each of the animals found dead had two punctured holes around their necks. (see Vampires)
Soon after the animal deaths in Puerto Rico, other animal deaths were reported in other countries, such as the Dominican Republic, Argentina , Bolivia, Chile, Columbia, El Salvador, Panama, Peru, Brazil, the United States and, most notably, Mexico.
NOTE: CROSS REFERENCE: UFO SIGHTINGS: MEXICO
You can find a listing of ufo sightings in Mexcio over the last ten years here http://www.ufoinfo.com/sightings/mexico.shtml
The chupacabra is generally treated as a product of mass hysteria, or psychological contagion though the animal mutilations are definitely real. Certain South American natives believe in the "mosquito man", a mythical creature of their folklore that pre-dates modern chupacabras sightings. The mosquito-man sucks the blood from animals through his long nose, like a big mosquito. Some say mosquito-man and chupacabras are one and the same.
In the annals of Chupacabra lore, the winter of 1995 was a time like no other. In Puerto Rico, arguably the center of modern Chupacabra activity, at least a dozen reports of Chupacabra attacks mounted quickly:

* In Orocovis, farmers found eight sheep completely drained of blood. Each bore puncture wounds.
* In Guanica, 44-year-old Osvaldo Claudio Rosado claimed to have been grabbed from behind by a gorilla. Puerto Rico has no gorillas. After fighting off the creature, Rosado needed treatment for scratches and cuts around his torso. Chickens and cows died nearby soon thereafter of single wounds to the neck, the blood simply gone.
* In Canovanas, livestock deaths reached into the hundreds. Mayor Jose "Chemo" Soto raised a posse of volunteers and personally hunted every week for the creature for nearly a year, armed with rifles and a caged goat. He failed to catch it. He was, however, re-elected.
* In Torrecilla Baja, a woman found a chicken dead of perforations in the neck, her cat dead with its genitals gone and her guinea pigs with their throats slit.

Latin Invasion
Indeed, in Latin America, the animal's reputation has spread south on a wave of Internet and newspaper publicity, with the Chupacabra behaving as a sort of celebrity monster. As recently as October of 1999, Brazil's Corriero Braziliense newspaper reported eight goats and three sheep dying of single wounds to the neck. Other Brazilian eyewitnesses claimed to have seen an animal that may fly or leap with powerful, monkey-like hind legs, attacking animals and humans both. Most witnesses also claim to have seen fangs. In every case, a predator appeared to wantonly kill livestock (usually goats or chickens), then mysteriously disappeared. No meat was taken, and only a small bite to the neck was apparent. And though no photographs of the assailant itself exist, hundreds of photos of the dead animals are on record, eerily similar ñ drained of blood, but otherwise intact. And there are those eyewitnesses, from dozens of incidents in far-flung regions, all telling strikingly similar stories.

A famous appearance in the city of Varginha, Brazil, (the "Varginha Incident") is sometimes attributed to the chupacabra, although cryptozoologists more frequently associate the incident with extraterrestrials. In 1997, an explosion of chupacabra sightings in Brazil were reported in Brazilian newspapers. One report came from a police officer, who claimed to get a nauseous feeling when he saw a dog-like chupacabras in a tree.

No such eyewitnesses came forward in Chile, but Calama's incident fits the profile. One fact inparticular stands out: Whatever killed the livestock hadn't eaten them, but inexplicably drained the animals of blood and left the meat behind.

Vampirism ... in paddocks ... of goats is classic Chupacabra behavior, never before seen so far south as Chile.

Still, until April of 2000, the beast had never ranged as far as Chile. Though attacks on livestock are not unheard of around Calama, a rural community near a wilderness hosting pumas and smaller predators, the violent mystery caught the nation's fancy. Within days of the first reports, the attacks had become a media sensation, with headlines dominating the national press and amateur video of the slaughtered livestock playing every night on the local news. In May, a Santiago citizen rented a gorilla suit and an alligator mask, hung a sign around his neck that read "Chupacabra" and spent a few afternoons lurking on a popular downtown paseo, leaping and biting at passing commuters' necks. The Clinic, a local humor magazine, went so far as to propose replacing two popular players on the national soccer team with a duo of the Calama Chupacabra and ex-dictator Augusto Pinochet.

But in Calama, the Chupacabra was no joke. Livestock were dead, and the unlucky farmers had lost their livelihood. Not to be caught flat-footed, Calama officials quickly called in the national guard. Hundreds of armed soldiers undertook a massive search of the area, hunting the Chupacabra. Night patrols, however, found nothing ñ neither the beast nor the puma skeptics believed was the real killer.


Chile's Chupacabra Hunt
With no results locally, the federal government got into the act. Back in Chile's capital of Santiago, the Justice Ministry began an investigation at the highest levels of Chilean law enforcement.

Two months later, neither the national guard nor the Chilean ministry had found the Chupacabra. But nor had they found anything else. No one knows what killed the Calama livestock by biting their necks and draining their blood. By late June, an official Chilean government statement had blamed the attacks on wild dogs.

Potential NASA Involvement
Chilean Chupacabra watchers remain suspicious, and the case continues. As recently as late June of 2000, Chilean newspapers printed accusations from Chilean "UFOlogists" ñ people who study unidentified flying objects in the same northern deserts where Calama lies ñ of Chilean military officials finding three "Chupacabra eggs" and even catching the animal itself. The Chupacabra material was then turned over to NASA, according to Chilean press accounts. Radio programs in Chile have also accused the American space agency of creating the Chupacabra in a lab in the first place, while conducting genetic tests in the Chilean desert on mandrills, an animal similar to the baboon.

NASA denies the charge with more annoyance than amusement. "Before this it was the face on Mars, and before that it was modifying the weather, before that we were beaming radiation from satellites to make people impotent," says a decidedly weary-sounding NASA spokesman, Brian Welch. "Before that they were saying we faked the moon landing." Welch suggests the Chupacabra is blamed on NASA because the space agency is the last place anyone in Chile would think to call and ask about it.

The animal soon made the leap to the mainland, with 69 chickens, goats and ducks found dead on a Florida lawn, again with their blood drained. Michigan and Oregon suffered subsequent attacks. Then, a rash of bloodsuckings in Mexico created a minor media sensation by late 1996, according to The Chupacabra Home Page, a project of some Princeton University students with time on their hands that is considered to be a definitive clearinghouse of Chupacabra lore.

Notable sightings in the United States include one reported by multiple eye-witnesses in Calaveras, CA and at a recent birthday celebration of a Development Team member of a local charity in Houston, Texas. In July of 2004, a rancher near San Antonio, Texas killed a hairless, dog-like creature which was attacking his livestock. This creature is now known as the Elmendorf Creature It was later determined to be a canine of some sort, most likely a coyote with demodectic mange In October of 2004, two animals which closely resemble the Elmendorf creature were observed in the same area. The first was dead, and the second was noticed by a local zoologist who was called to identify the animal while she was travelling to the location where the first was found. Specimens were studied by biologists in Texas. The creatures are thought to have been canines of undetermined species with skin problems and facial deformities.
The chupacabra has even been spotted in Michigan. A recent sighting occurred in Grand Haven, when a forty-two year old man claimed he saw it suck the blood out of a cat. Recently, there has been a surge of chupacabra sightings in the United States, specifically in the suburbs of Washington, DC. However, controversy exists whether these chupacabras sightings are legitimate.

In April of 2006, it was reported that the chupacabra was spotted for the first time in Russia. Reports from Central Russia as far back as March 2005 tell of a beast that kills animals and sucks out their blood. 32 turkeys were killed and drained overnight. Reports later came from neighboring villages when 30 sheep were killed and had their blood drained. Finally eyewitnesses were able to describe the chupacabra. This May experts are determined to track the animal down.
Descriptions of the physical appearance of each specimen can resemble descriptions of other reports, or be completely different from other chupacabra descriptions. Differences in descriptions are too wide to be attributed to differences in the perceptions of the observers, causing cryptozoologists to speculate that chupacabra reports may in fact be attributable to several species. Although they have different appearances, chupacabra descriptions have several common traits. They are typically described as being 3 ft. (1 m) or taller, and roughly humanoid in shape.
Usually, chupacabras are said to appear in three specific forms:
The first and most common form is a lizard-like being, appearing to have leathery or scaly greenish-gray skin and sharp spines or quills running down its back. This form stands approximately 3 to 4 feet (1 to 1.2 m) high, and stands and hops in a similar fashion to a kangaroo. In at least one sighting, the creature hopped 20 feet (6 m). This variety is said to have a dog or panther-like nose and face, a forked-tongue protruding from it, large fangs, and to hiss and screech when alarmed, as well as leave a sulfuric stench behind. When it screeches, some reports note that the chupacabra's eyes glow an unusual red, then give the witnesses nausea.
The second variety bears a resemblance to a wallaby or dog standing on its hind legs. It stands and hops as a kangaroo, and it has coarse fur with greyish facial hair. The head is similar to a dog's, and its mouth has large teeth.
The third form is described as a strange breed of wild dog. This form is mostly hairless, has a pronounced spinal ridge, unusually pronounced eye sockets, teeth, and claws. This animal is said to be the result of interbreeding between several populations of wild dogs, though enthusiasts claim that it might be an example of a dog-like reptile. The account during the year 2001 in Nicaragua of a chupacabra's corpse being found supports the conclusion that it is simply a strange breed of wild dog. The alleged corpse of the animal was found in Tolapa, Nicaragua, and forensically analyzed. Pathologists found that it was just an unusual-looking dog. There are very striking morphological differences between different breeds of dog, which can easily account for the strange characteristics.
Some reports claim the chupacabra's red eyes have the ability to hypnotize and paralyze their prey—leaving the prey animal mentally stunned, allowing the chupacabra to suck the animal's blood at its leisure. The effect is similar to the bite of the vampire bat or of certain snakes or spiders that stun their prey with venom. Unlike conventional predators, the chupacabras sucks all the animal's blood (and sometimes organs) through a single hole or two holes.
Many residents of South America have reported sightings of La Chupacabra, and although various, the descriptions share some significant likenesses. In many reports, accounts include the visible inflation of the stomach region, after La Chupacabra has been feeding. The appearance of the animal changes when an internal bladder-like organ fills with the blood of its prey. Furthermore, with almost all the reported sightings witnesses have reported large portruding fangs. These fangs are suspected to be hollow and be the vehicles for the blood on which it feeds.
Theories
It has been described as similar to gargoyles , so it has been theorized that the creatures were seen in Medieval Europe. According to this theory, gargoyles were carved to resemble chupacabras, to keep the public afraid of any place with gargoyles.
Some cryptozoologists speculate that chupacabras are alien creatures. Chupacabras are widely described as otherworldly, and, according to one witness report, NASA may be involved with this particular alien's residency on earth. The witness reported that NASA passed through an area in Latin America, with a trailer that was thought to contain an incarcerated creature. Others speculate that the creature is an escaped pet of alien visitors that wandered off while its master was visiting Earth.
Some people in the island of Puerto Rico believe that the chupacabras were a genetic experiment from some United States' government agency, which escaped from a secret laboratory in El Yunque, a mountain in the east part of the island.
Some superstitious people with high levels of imagination might be seeing something innocous, like a dog in shadows, and think it's something else.
