Panama: youngsters claim to have killed an alien

Another thing that is puzzling me is where in the world are its teeth?

What on Earth would this thing eat?

You're scared so you kill it. Sounds like something a dog or bear would do. And we are supposedly advanced?

It had obviously been in the water for a while. It is extremely bloated, and bleached.

The kids were OBVIOUSLY lying about it charging them.

It looks like it could be related to that piggy in that clip that Silo posted

Crazy pic though? probably a hoax?

yeah and what a typical human response- to kill it- that bit rings true

There isn't nearly enough information to call it a hoax.
Jesus, why does everything have to be explained away.

It is a bunch of kids claiming it is an alien. But they don't KNOW that. For all they know, it was an, as yet, undiscovered cave dwelling animal.

For the life of me I can't understand why people would just jump to the conclusion that the children in question are lying about this.

Poor little thing...

I can see why they were scared, but it doesn't look harmful.

That picture has upset me slightly.

Humanity eh?

EDIT: It looks like the 'baby' from David Lynch's Eraserhead.

well like another poster pointed out- look at it- doesnt look like it had the energy to charge anyone-

I'm going with what you said- an as yet undiscovered cave dweller- or it's a hoax

Well, when was the last time you saw an energetic dead creature? I really wish the hind quarters were shown in the picture. That could possibly answer these questions once and for all.

Simple biology my friend.

No teeth, bloated stomach, skinny limbs, small eyes, narrow point of vision.

Learn a little biology and you'll finds these are traits not associated with dangerous animals (assuming it is an animal)

Yeah but look at it it's all bloated- plus where are the marks from it being stoned to death?

another reason it is obviously a sloth is that children were able to throw stones at it and kill it? Sloths are super slow. I doubt aliens would stand around and accept that kind of treatment!

So I didnt read the thread before posting and it seems it's a sloth

Makes ya sad that people would skin an animal to prove a point- happens all the time- I hope it was dead first or that they didnt kill it just to skin it and put it up on the www

It doesn't look skinned..... well because it looks fleshy and seems to have skin.

Obligatory second line.

It's clearly an alien sloth. If there can be alien people, surely there can be alien sloths, right?

Umh perhaps but not on earth

Since some people missed the link I posted, I will post here:

www.abovetopsecret.com...

I have found an interview by Nieves B. Pazos to Prof. Gastón Aseff , a researcher in cryptozoology: he stated to have just been at the phone with one of ther biologists who performed the autopsy to the creature:
according to him, it could be a mutation of a sloth: Perezoso, which translation returns "Sloth".

Source
www.almanaqueazul.org...

Also according to Jacobo Araúz, a zoologist who teaches at the Faculty of Natural Sciences at the University of Panama, it should be some breed of sloth, but he added that it could also be could be a mutation of a mammal born with some form of malformation.
He also stated that they should investigate the area in order to find out whether there are similar ones, and also if in the area is being used any pesticides that cause this type genetic malformations.
Another possible cause would be the so called "endogamia" (inbreeding):

This type of malformations are common in wildlife when populations are small and begin reproducing between themselves, a union that in biology is known as "endogamia".

www.critica.com.pa...

Inbreeding may result in a far higher phenotypic expression of deleterious recessive genes within a population than would normally be expected. As a result, first-generation inbred individuals are more likely to show physical and health defects, including:

Reduced fertility both in litter size and sperm viability

Increased genetic disorders

Fluctuating facial asymmetry

Lower birth rate

Higher infant mortality

Slower growth rate

Smaller adult size

Loss of immune system function

en.wikipedia.org...
so the theories are basically two, each one of them not neccessarly excludes the other one: (it could be some malformed sloth as far as they know)

And people wonder why "they" don't make contact.

It's an excellent survival mechanism that's kept humanity around so far.

It certainly does look like a sloth.
I wonder why it was reported coming out of a cave.

Oh well. One thing is pretty certain, it isn't an alien.

I also still wonder why it has no teeth. I mean, it has obviously lived long enough to have eaten a few meals, but there aren't any teeth.

The obvious question is still the albino look. But hairless albino animals aren't all that rare, I suppose.

The teeth gets me more than anything.

It does look fleshy but that's not to say someone got rid of it's fur somehow?

I dunno, these we killed an alien pics all look pretty much the same- a dead animal looking like thing with no hair
