According to local tradition, the crocodile is a princess whose marriage to the town mayor will bring in an abundance of seafood for fisherman on the Pacific coast, 'metro.co.uk' reported. "It is my wish to marry the young princess," said Vasquez Rojas as the pair were married. For safety, the crocodile's jaw was wired shut for the day. The festivities included dancing and fireworks, and the groom said was delighted with how the day went.
