I like this kind of news that makes me smile. Saw this in the news by accident and the idea of drawing this hilarious tradition haunted me since then :) Local customs are the best!

A Mexican mayor has married a CROCODILE to 'bring luck' to local fishermen

The croc bride - known as 'The Princess' - wore a custom-made wedding dress and veil as she was paraded through streets to band music before the wedding ceremony.
She also wore a veil as she was paraded through streets, accompanied by band music.
The the croc got hitched as part of a ritual which has been practised 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.
According to custom, the crocodile is regarded as a princess, and it's believed she will bring peace and prosperity to their community.
