The mayor of a town in Mexico has tied the knot with an alligator. Victor Hugo Sosa is the mayor of a town named San Pedro Huamelula in southern Mexico. The town populates mostly Indigenous Chontal people in the Tehuantepec Isthmus of Mexico. The mayor married a female alligator in a traditional ceremony believed to bring good fortune. The reptile apparently represents a ‘princess girl’ in local lore. The alligator was named Alicia Adriana. As onlookers clapped and danced, the mayor entered into holy matrimony with the female reptile. The reptile is a caiman, which means it’s an alligator-like marsh dweller endemic to Mexico and Central America.
