The Monkey Hoax
-
This foetus-like body was discovered along a highway in Georgia in 1953 by three young boys. The three boys claimed that they witnessed a red flying saucer and three little aliens circling it. Two of them left with saucer, leaving one of them behind. (Picture above)
For a period of time the police were certain that this was an extraterrestrial being, until a few days later, the police confirmed that it was nothing more than a shaved Capuchin monkey with its tail chopped off.
When confronted, the three young boys confessed that it was a bet made during a card game by one of the boys, who wagered his mates that he could make the headlines in the local paper in a week's time. So he bought a monkey, drugged it and made it look like what it is now.
Till this day, the dead monkey is preserved in the Georgia Crime Laboratory.
