This is the bizarre moment a Mexican mayor married a CROCODILE in a strange ceremony as part of an age old tradition to 'bring luck' to local fishermen.
The female crocodile - known as 'The Princess' - was baptized on Thursday then subsequently dressed in a custom-made wedding dress and had her jaws clamped shut for the big event.
She also wore a veil as she was paraded through streets, accompanied by band music.
The croc got hitched as part of a ritual which has been practiced by the Chontal Indians since 1789.
They believe the ceremony will bring good luck and prosperity to local fishermen along the Pacific coast of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in Oaxaca State.
