He Wants To Suck Your Goat

Beware comrades!

The mysterious Chupacabra vampire has been spotted in Russia. First sighted in Puerto Rico, back in the early 90s, this may be its first appearance outside the Americas.

An article from Mosnews, states:

Reports of a beast that kills animals and sucks on their blood came from a village in Central Russia back in March 2005, when a farm had 32 turkeys killed overnight. The beast left the corpses bloodless, the Komsomolskaya Pravda daily said.

Then reports came from neighboring villages, where more than 30 sheep and goats fell victim to the vampire. Again, the blood had been drained from corpses but the flesh remained intact. All the slaughtered animals had similar puncture wounds on their necks, different from the marks that wolves, dogs or lynx leave on their victims.

Finally, eyewitness descriptions match the traditional description of the Chupacabra, said to resemble a kangaroo and a dog with huge teeth.

I hope the investigators check the vodka consumption levels of these eyewitnesses before they expend too much time and money researching the vampiric appearances. Still, it's nice to have a strange news item, now and then, to take our minds off the really horrific events of the day.
