Did Panama Teens discover alien like unidentified creature in Panama?
The ‘mystery alien-beast’ discovered by four teens in Panama and widely reported in the media over the past few days is likely a deformed sloth. A week ago four teens playing near a creek in Cerro Azul, a community in the northern part of Panama City, encountered the creature, which they claim approached them.
