In Russia the first evidence has appeared of a half mythical creature which sucks blood from animals, even large ones. Abroad it is known under the name chupacabra. No one knows for certain what it looks like, but in 2005 a farmer in Texas caught in a trap something looking like a cross between a bald dog, a rat and a kangaroo, which was sucking blood out of his chickens and turkeys.

And now a mystery bloodsucker has appeared around Orenburg. The worries began at the end of March 2005 not far from the regional centre of Saraktash. On the Sapreka farm two farming families suddenly lost 32 turkeys. The bodies of the birds, found in the morning, had been completely drained of blood. None of the farmers either saw or heard the beast that killed them.
Then in the village of Gavrilovka sheep fell victim to the night-time vampire. The unknown animal was also in the hamlets of Vozdvizhenka and Shishma. In the course of the night 3-4 sheep or goats perished. All together the losses in the region amounted to 30 small horned cattle.
The vampire distinguishes itself through its high intelligence. The farmer had just propped the door to the stable, where 8 sheep were housed, shut using an iron bar. The beast threw off the prop and gnawed on four sheep. In the villages people have begun to be afraid of going out into the yard late in the evening and even more so onto the street. The bravest people have kept watch during the night in the hope of picking off the animal.
According to testimonies from villagers, they found traces of bite marks on the throats of the dismembered animals which looked like bullet wounds. Suggestions that it may have been a wolf or a lynx have been refuted. First of all, wolves and dogs eat the meat, gnaw on the carcass, but the mysterious creature merely drank the blood of its prey. A regional specialist for hunting surveillance team, Vasiliy Nechaev, says that lynxes are too cautious, do not approach humans, that even in the winter they are unlikely to enter the village. “Furthermore they attack from behind, whereas there were wounds on the side of the sheep under their lower jaw,” he reasons.
Nevertheless there is some evidence about the baffling creature. As Erbulat Isbasov recalls, he came into contact with it when he was guarding the sheep’s enclosure. “I heard the sheep start to bleat loudly. I run up to them and see a black shadow. It looked like a enormous dog that had stood up on its hind legs. And jumped like a kangaroo. The beast sensed my presence and ran away. It squeezed through an opening in the panels of the fence.”
