El Chupacabra is a legendary creature in folklore, primarily associated with Latin America. Its name translates to "goat-sucker," as it is said to attack and drink the blood of livestock, particularly goats. Descriptions of the creature vary, but it is often depicted as a small, reptilian creature with sharp fangs and spines along its back. Sightings of El Chupacabra began in the 1990s, particularly in Puerto Rico, and have since spread to other regions. While many reports describe it as a fearsome predator, scientific investigations have largely attributed the sightings to misidentified animals, such as coyotes suffering from mange.
