"Goat sucker" not really, unless it's a comparison to the mythological creature, there it could be used offensively.

Not really - unless you are calling someone that to be mean. Then, yes - obviously. Do you know what Chupacabra is?
It is an animal said to be unknown to science and systemically killing animals in places like Puerto Rico, Miami, Nicaragua, Chile, and Mexico. The creature's name originated with the discovery of some dead goats

Chupacabra means goat sucker. It is the name of a mythical creature in Mexico and perhaps some other Hispanoamerican countries which sucks the blood from livestock, especially goats.
So no, it is not offensive.

Um, no. Should I?
Would a chupacabra find it offensive if I said I didn't believe in it?

No, I wouldn't find it offensive.
I think the only way it could be offensive is if people found out that it was a scam - an insult to our intelligence, which it very well could be.

If it was used to refer to bestiality, then it would be offensive, but other than that, not really. I know a lot of people who just yell it out for no good reason.

No, it's not. There's no reason for that.
Now, if someone calls you that, that's a different story. But the word is not normally used as an insult.

No. It's an animal in South America (I think) that may be fictional, but many report it actually having been seen. Sort of like a Yeti but more like a tiger.

Just hearing it, no.
Someone calling me that, yes.

I thought that was the name of that dead black rapper.
