The Chupacabra or Chupacabras is a creature said to inhabit parts of the Americas. It is associated particularly with Puerto Rico, where it was first reported, and Mexico. The name, which translates literally from Spanish as "goat-sucker", comes from its reported habit of attacking and drinking the blood of livestock. Physical descriptions of the creature vary. Sightings began in Puerto Rico in the early 1990s, and have since been reported as far north as the Carolinas and as far south as Chile.   Do you think it is a real creature? EDIT: Updated pictures

is that supposed to be a photo of one? scary... If it's a picture of a chupacabra, where did you get it?
Oh, yes. I think it's real. Supernatural? Not so much. Probably an evolutionary mis-turn that continued to mate.

I got the picture from wikipedia. I know that it is not supernaturla. It's heading more in the direction of cryptozoology. For those that do't know what cryptozoology is, it is the study of animals that are possibly mythical.

That was bad. . . I think it's real. It's just too unexplainable.

Well......personaly, I think that picture is of a fake one. It just looks fake. I do, on the other hand, think that it existes. There was supposidly one that was shot and killed a few towns away me.......and thats up here in Oregon.

Creeeeepy. eek
It's something to wonder about. As long as it doesn't eat me, I'm OK with it existing.

I have read some things about them, indeed I agree with its not supernatural, but its making a lot of farmers go crazy and people to go scared, also there have been known of them attacking humans.

I dont think its real. It could be known creature that is mistaken to be a new one that just has an unusual habit. But if it is real, then hopefully I will never have to come into contact with it.

I think it is just a misshapen vampire beast that existed for maybe many of years but they were so few in numbers... also I think some of the south/middle america is how shall I say... over active imagination.

Neko_Bast Well......personaly, I think that picture is of a fake one. It just looks fake. I do, on the other hand, think that it existes. There was supposidly one that was shot and killed a few towns away me.......and thats up here in Oregon. Yes its fake, there are no real pictures of this beast if you ask me, I belive the could exist, but only as a animal species... (vampire bat crossing with ... i dont know... something else? vamp bats also drink blood.)
