Mythical 'bloodsucking' Chupacabra is spotted running through a Bolivian field after killing up to 75 chickens, ducks and turkeys in a 25-mile radius in Guatemala
- The mythical beast known as the Chupacabra allegedly made an appearance in western Bolivia this month and was tracked by a drone before disappearing
- The two-legged creature is said to have been behind the killings of llamas, alpacas and goats that were on a farm in the Bolivian city of Ouro
- The animal reportedly is responsible for killing a flock of ducks, turkeys and chickens at a property in the Guatemala city of Chimaltenango Sunday
The legendary, 'bloodsucking' creature known as the Chupacabra was reportedly spotted in the western Bolivian city of Ouro.
The mythical, two-legged beast is said to have been picked up by a drone earlier this month after cows, llamas and alpacas were found dead, with most of their blood drained out.
'It's strange,' local filmmaker Carla Flores told Telemundo. 'It looks like a dog, but it has a hump towards the back. Looking at the images it has the same positioning that a Chupacabra has.
The creature is a modern myth of the Americas, with large fangs and bright red eyes. Its sighting has been reported in Puerto Rico, Central and South America, Mexico and the southwestern region of the United States.
It has been said to suck the blood out of other creatures, and was first spotted in Puerto Rico in the 1990s.
A local filmmaker in Bolivia used a drone to that reportedly showed the Chupacabra roaming through a farm in the southern rural city of Ouro in early June. Farmers sought out help after cows, alpacas and llamas turned up dead with their blood drained out
A resident from the southern Guatemalan town of Chimaltenango holds a fowl that was discovered dead at a property on Sunday. Some neighbors said the animals were attacked from behind and had their blood drained out, attributing the killings to the mythical creature known as the Chupacabra
'We don't know if it's the Chupacabra or not,' Lucio Portugal told the network.
Portugal, a government official in the town of Canllapata, said the dead animals had their blood sucked out from the neck down to the stomach.
On one occasion, the creature is said to have used its tongue to remove an animal's organs.
The Chupacabra was blamed for killing a flock of chickens, turkeys and ducks at a property in the southern Guatemala municipality of Chimaltenango Sunday.

Video footage showed the livestock spread across a backyard as curious residents stood over them while others shockingly touched them and grabbed them ground.
Most of the residents believe that the Chupacabra attacked the birds from behind to drink their blood before it vanished.
'We have many opinions, because some neighbors say that it could be the Chupacabra, while others say that during the night they have heard what seems to be meowing and have seen a shape of a wolf-like animal at night,' a woman said, as quoted by Guata Visión.
Another woman distanced herself from the overall consensus and called on the police department to conduct an investigation.
'The truth is not known what kind of animal it is,' she said. 'What we are asking the authorities is to pay a little attention to this situation, and to help us identify the animal that is behind all this.'
Authorities also received reports of a similar incident that left 75 animals dead in the village of Pueblo Viejo on March 24.
In May, residents in the rural town of Leona Vicario, 24 miles west of Cancún, blamed the Chupacabra for the killing of a goat that its eyes ripped off and blood drained out.
There have even been sightings in America of the mythical creature. In May 2019, a creature was spotted on Highway 6 near Houston, according to ABC 13.
In 2002, a zoo captured on video a creature in Amarillo, Texas, that sparked an online debate on if it was Chupacabra, according to MARCA.
