One of the very few - perhaps the only - creatures whose bite pressure can be measured fairly accurately is human beings. The average biting force of an adult male human (male because, in general, we lugs are bigger and have proportionately thicker masseter muscles than females) varies between 45 and 68 kg - although forces as great as 159 kg have been recorded for Inuit males (squeaky-voiced, ear-biting tough guy Mike Tyson, please take note). The Dental Science Handbook published by the American Dental Association (1970) gives bite pressures by humans as great as 15 tons per square inch - 83% as strong as the greatest pressure recorded thus far for any shark. No wonder human bites are often so devastating - we have short jaws, powered by thick masseter muscles and armed with relatively blunt, chisel-shaped incisors.
Just think what the chupacabra can do cuz it is a carnivore.
Do you believe in the existing of the chupacabra?

Characteristics
Reported incidents of these sorts of creatures vary somewhat, but there are several basic characteristics that pop up over and over again. In most cases, the eyewitnesses describe a beast that is 4.5 to 5.5 feet (137 to 168 cm) tall, with an oval shaped head bearing alien-like eyes that glow red. Most descriptions claim that the creature has long, feathery spines that run from the back of its head down the spine, ending at the rump.
Many eyewitnesses report a strong, unpleasant sulfur-type odor, but others say that the creature has no smell. Some say the skin is similar to a frog's -- green in color with mottled specks; others claim that it has the appearance of furry lizard skin.
Although the creature generally ambles on two legs, it has been known to run on all four. Many assert kangaroo-like qualities, saying that the Chupacabra uses its strong hind legs to jump rather than walk. Others suggest a more ape-like quality to the creature's gait.
