Chupacabra (Animal)

The chupacabra (Thylacocanis caprovorus) is a species of native American cat-sized marsupial found throughout Central America and southern parts of the United States. The chupacabra was long thought to be a myth, until the discovery of a live individual chupacabra in August 29, 2019. The chupacabra doesn't exclusively drink blood, despite how myths or popular culture seem to show, but can also feed on smaller animals, eggs, corn, bulbs, tubers, and even pet food. It is normally gray or grayish-brown in color and is almost entirely hairless with the exception of whiskers for feeling its way in the darkest night. The closest living relative of chupacabras are water opossums, as their DNAs confirms.
