In honor of Cinco de Mayo, today we will be delving into a cryptid of latin origin. The Chupacabra is a relatively new creature, first reported in the 1990s. The first sighting was made on the tiny island of Puerto Rico and since then, sightings have been reported thoughout the world. One thing you may not know, is that not all locations view the chupacabra the same. In Mexico and Puerto Rico the animal has a more reptilian appearance and in the southwestern United States, the chupacabra is described more like a canine. I bet you don't know all there is to know about Chupacabras so take a listen!!
