Chupacabra in Russia - sensational report by MosNews.com!

March 2005, disturbing reports of a mysterious creature resembling the legendary Chupacabra emerged in central Russia. Reports of slaughtered animals, including 32 turkeys found drained of blood, emerged from rural areas. Witnesses described the beast as a 1.2-meter-tall creature with a hump on its back that moved in a manner reminiscent of a kangaroo. Zoologists, examining its tracks, encountered difficulty identifying the animal.

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

Reports of a beast that kills animals and sucks the blood from their bodies originated in a village in Central Russia in March 2005, when 32 turkeys were found slaughtered overnight on a farm. The beast left the bodies drained of blood , the newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda reported.

Then, reports emerged from neighboring villages where over 30 sheep and goats had fallen victim to the vampire. They, too, were drained of blood, but their bodies remained intact. All the slaughtered animals had similar puncture wounds on their necks, distinct from those left by wolves, dogs, or lynxes.

Finally, the descriptions given by witnesses match the traditional description of the Chupacabra, which is said to resemble a kangaroo and a dog with huge teeth.

"I heard a loud cry from a sheep, and as I approached the barn, I saw a large shadow, like a dog standing on its hind legs. It jumped like a kangaroo—when it noticed me, it ran away ," said Yerbulat Isbasov, an 18-year-old shepherd from the village of Gavrilovka.

Jerbulat saw the creature again a few days ago and described it as being 1.2 meters tall with a hump on its back.

Alfiya Makasheva noticed a whole flock of bats in her yard.

One was a huge reddish creature, another was dark gray, and there were a group of puppies around them. In the middle of the yard, a single red bat turned its head and stood on its hind legs as if it were a sentient animal.

When Dmitry Madinovsky from Orenburg heard about the animal, he suggested it might be the legendary Chupacabra and set out to find it. In the forest near the Samara River, he found two rows of tracks that could have belonged to an animal weighing 35 kilograms. The tracks showed five-toed paws with claws and webbed toes, and a tail that trailed between them. Zoologists were unable to identify the animal based on the footprints.

It's definitely a chupacabra! Small front legs and large hind legs , Madinowski said. The animal first crawled on all fours, then near water, stood on its hind legs, raised its tail, and jumped far away, like a kangaroo.

In May, Madinovsky and experts from the Ural Anomaly Research Station decided to track down the animal.
