Metepec and the Ranch Alien

In 2007 the Mexican television presenter Jaime Maussan exhibited the body of a tiny creature said to have been caught alive in a trap on a ranch near Metepec in 2005 and drowned in a water tank. According to Maussan the ranchers wanted a fortune for it. The testing that the promoters themselves reported produced an answer nobody had ordered: a skinned primate — a squirrel monkey or a marmoset — with the jaw bones removed and the skin sewn shut. Maussan went on to present several more alien bodies to the public, the Nazca mummies among them.
