Rash of Chupacabra Livestock Attacks in Brazil

Brazil isn't the usual place to see El Chupacabra, but in the last few weeks, there has been a rash of livestock killings in Bahia, Brazil, which seem to match the typical Chupacabra M.O..

The slaughtered animals include the regular goats, as well as chickens. As is usual in wild animal attacks on livestock, small holes have been torn in the wire mesh fencing, and the defenseless animals inside have been drained of their blood, left with two small fang-marks on their necks.

One suggested culprit is some form of weasel or other mustelid. Weasels certainly fit the necessary size range, and several species are known to exist in Brazil.
