Most of the stories
regarding El Chupacabra are extremely similar to each other. Some are as
identical as they can get and others are a bit too strange for anybody to believe.
Most of the stories start out by eyewitnesses reporting missing livestock or finding
them drained of blood. In each sighting there is little to no evidence found,
which created the buzz regarding the existence of El Chupacabra. Stories go back
to the mid-1900s when the first sightings of El Chupacabra occurred in Puerto Rico.
Since then sighting all across South America, Mexico, the United States, and
even some areas around the world have had their share of stories.
According to the article written by Stephen Wagner, the first story ever told about El Chupacabra was in March of 1995 on the island of Puerto Rico, when eight sheep were discovered
dead and drained of blood completely. At first the people of the town believed
that the sighting was of a normal animal feeding on livestock, but when investigators
notice several abnormalities with each killing, the legend of El Chupacabra
began. A year later in 1996 sighting of El Chupacrabra reached the United States
for the first time. The incident occurred in a rural area northwest of Miami, Florida.
Reports suggest that more than forty animal where found dead and drained of
blood throughout the area. Expert can’t explain such phenomenon, but they hope
that they can get enough evidence in the future throughout all the different
sighting occurring constantly.
