The Chupacabra was a part-lizard, part-homunculus, blood-sucking magical beast native to the Americas.[1]
History[]
Gellert Grindelwald had a pet Chupacabra named Antonio until he hurled it out of the door of an Incarceration Carriage.[2]
The celebrity Magizoologist Naasz obtained a pack of Chupacabras by at least the 2010s, although they remained wild in behaviour. During the Calamity, she asked a Calamity Investigator working for the Statute of Secrecy Task Force to look after her Chupacabras for a week while she was away. However, she actually returned three weeks later to finally relieve the now scarred and bloodied investigator of the task, with the investigator leaving with a stronger understanding of Chupacabras.[3]
Description[]
The Chupacabra had six legs, multiple spines, and several sharp teeth.[4] It had blue markings with red rings on its body.
Behind the scenes[]
- The Chupacabra is a mythological creature said to live in Puerto Rico, where it originated, North America and South America. Its name comes from the Spanish and Portuguese words for "goat sucker", as it is said to obtain nourishment from sucking the blood of goats and other livestock. Depending on the locality of the sighting, the appearance of the Chupacabra varies drastically. For example, in Puerto Rico, the Chupacabra is said to be a bipedal, reptilian humanoid, while in much of North America, it is said to look more like a hairless dog or coyote.
