In what appears to be an oddity to the rest of the world, Mayor of a small southern Mexico town, Victor Hugo Sosa has married a female reptile, named Alicia Adriana.
It is however not the first time the Mayor is undertaking such action as he married a seven -year-old alligator in the same ritual last year and the video of the ceremony had gone viral.
Mr Sosa said during the ritual: “I accept responsibility because we love each other. That is what is important.
“You can’t have a marriage without love… I yield to marriage with the princess girl.”
He was pictured kissing the animal on the head.
Marriage between a man and a female caiman has taken place there for 230 years to commemorate the peace between the Chontal and Huave indigenous groups.
The mayor, representing the Chontal king, marries the reptile, symbolising a Huave princess girl, in a union of the two communities.
