A Bride to Bring Good Luck? The Surprising Identity Under the White Veil

A mayor in a Mexican city is making headlines after taking a very special bride.

You will be even more surprised once you find out the bride's identity. Let's take a look.

In a village in the Mexican state of Oaxaca.

A bride dressed in a pure white wedding gown parades through the streets, receiving congratulations from the people.

However, looking closely, the bride is not a human, but a caiman crocodile.

People dance with the crocodile, and the mayor performs the wedding ceremony by kissing the caiman.

It turns out this is a traditional festival that has been held in this village for over 230 years.

The ceremony is said to symbolize prayers for the abundance of nature, a bountiful harvest, and the prosperity of the community.

Everyone is hoping that this special wedding will bring good luck to the village again this year.
