The blood-sucking demon of goats (and cattle in general) whose name comes from the Spanish word Chupacabra. The Chupacabra demon has long been a mythical animal, but has recently resurfaced in some countries.
According to Belkis Muk Yigit, a lecturer at the University of Igdir, after research, an attempt will be made to identify the species:

“Then we’ll make certain that this skeleton is kept in the museum.”
Excavation manager Yusuf Kytai stated that employees discovered an animal skeleton while excavating on a site that had not been used in 30-40 years.

The shape of the bones piqued the workers’ interest, according to Kitit, and they reported it to the authorities.
“We told the authorities that it seemed like an intriguing animal with claws instead of hooves and sharp jaws.”
“I hope that something fascinating and important for science is discovered,” he added.
Some have speculated that it could be the famous Chupacabra.
The chupacabra is a mystery creature in portions of the Americas folklore, with the first documented sightings in Puerto Rico in 1995. The term stems from the chupacabra’s purported vampirism—the animal is claimed to attack and consume the blood of livestock, notably goats.

Radford, editor of Skeptical Inquirer, has published a book in the US, titled Tracking the Chupacabra: The Vampire Beast in Fact, Fiction and Folklore. In the book, Radford asserts that Chupacabra is just an urban legend, and then became extremely popular around the world thanks to the internet.
The author claims that the woman, Madelyne Tolentino from Canovanas, Puerto Rico, was struck by the widely released 1995 horror film Species, which featured a beast. With a paranoid mind, she told the story to a local newspaper. In 1996, she was invited to the program “Popular talk” of Univision TV channel, broadcast in Spanish to the US and Latin American countries. After Tolentino appeared on TV, the images of Chupacabra became known throughout the Americas.

Tolentino describes the beast with a height of 1.2 – 1.5m, red eyes like alien eyes, long claws and sharp spikes on his back. According to Radford, that description is unreliable, from the number of toes to the genitals. All in all, it’s a lot like the monsters in the aforementioned movie.
Radford spent many years of his life studying the Chupacabra phenomenon. He toured Puerto Rico and Nicaragua, meeting and interviewing witnesses. When he met Madelyne Tolentino, she herself confessed that she had seen the movie “Species” only two weeks before seeing the beast.
Radford, who is a psychologist, after analyzing Madelyne’s description, concluded that the woman unconsciously influenced elements of the monster in the film when describing the animal in the film. Legend has existed since time immemorial. Many people are obsessed with the legends of vampire bats and are willing to believe her story.
But José “Chemo” Soto Rivera, the mayor of the city of Canovanas, where the rumors originated, and one of the organizers of the expeditions to hunt for the beast, rejected Radfford’s theory. Tolentino saw the animal after it killed a parrot, he said. It is possible that Madelyne made a mistake in describing the animal, but many other people have seen and even shot down the Chupacabra. The mayor believes that Chupacabra does exist and adds that he “wouldn’t bother” to read Radford’s book.

But people say Chupacabra is a fabrication because there is not enough scientific evidence to prove its existence. They definitely do not believe in the absence of specific evidence, especially the DNA of the animal.
According to Radfford: “In the middle of the first half of the 21st century, all the myths people collectively called “Chupacabra” such as the mangy wolf in the grasslands, the carcass of the strange American panda, etc. dead fish in Mexico, nothing to do with Chupacabra.”
