Farmers in Siberia having reported their goats being killed by a mystery creature and drained of blood.
One animal keeper described an experience one night when she heard strange noises and went outside to find one of her goats dead with bite marks on its neck. Locals in rural areas are up in arms because the police are reluctant to investigate the incidents.
A blood-sucking creature is preying upon goats near Novosibirsk. As rational explanations run thin on the ground, the specter of the so-called chupacabra raises its demon head.

What would Chupacabra be in Russian? I didn't know they could fly. The original Puerto Rico Chupacabras did have wings, if I remember right. Looked more like a gargoyle then a coyote.

From the OP: A blood-sucking creature is preying upon goats near Novosibirsk. As rational explanations run thin on the ground, the specter of the so-called chupacabra raises its demon head.Horrified farmers and smallholders are confronted by the drained corpses of their livestock in the morning, bloodless and bearing puncture marks to the neck but otherwise largely in tact. But local cops are reluctant to record apparent vampire attacks, as they await official recertification, leaving the locals up in arms. “If this creature is not stopped it could make its way to Novosibirsk!

Those crazy Russians! They'll keep an "alien" in their freezer but won't keep a photograph of a Chupacabra!
