A farmer claimed that he found the remains of two Chupacabra creatures, mythical blood sucking monsters, in Chile.
54-year-old Bricio Saldivar said he stumbled across the bodies of the strange creatures on the outskirts of the small town of Monte Patria in the east central Chilean province Limari.
When he alerted other farmers in the region, they all thought the remains were those of bats but on closer inspection, they became convinced they are from the mythical creatures.
Translated from Spanish, Chupacabra means “goat sucker,” which is a reptile-like mythical creature with leathery and scaly green-grey skin with sharp pins and quills running down its back.
They are said to be four foot tall and hop like a kangaroo, while living in Central and South American countries.
The name comes from the monster's habit of attacking and drinking the blood of livestock, especially goats.
And now the find has sparked fears among other farmers in the nearby area.
In April last year, a couple from Texas claimed they had captured a Chupacabra in their back garden. However, after an investigation, it was established that the creature was a raccoon suffering from scabies.
