Chupacabras And The Jersey Devil ! Myth Or Reality?
Myth Or Reality ?
There are still lots of animals and creatures human race is unaware of. I am not saying that some of the monster like creatures still exist or they ever walked the face of this earth nor do i deny its existence.People in the past have reported seeing different kinds of unusual animals and people who have a tendency to lean on the paranormal side say those were some devils, demons or mystery creatures..perhaps evoked from the bottoms of hell or called upon by blackmagick! Whatever it is there is still some evidence in what people say about the strange sightings.The Chupacabras were known to suck goats blood and kill them and it was described as a horrible looking creature with glowing eyes, short, something like a kangaroo and a dog ! some blame these killing of livestock on coyotes, to be precise manged coyotes who look different because they are hairless,others who had witnessed the monsterlike creature reported this monster had glowing red eyes and it was nowhere near like a coyote.The strange part is that these monsters didnt eat the flesh of their prey, they drained the blood of its prey by sucking its blood like a vampire.
The other monsterlike creature sighted was the Jersey Devil. It is said to have wings, its face was horselike and it could fly, gallop and swim !
Some sightings of the Chupacabra date back to the 1970's. Its also known as the goat killer.The sighting started in 1995 when people of Puerto Rico reported witnessing a strange creature that was killing farmer's livestock, sometimes hundreds of animals in an evening. Chupacabras killed these animals by sucking their blood.
