Metepec, Mexico is a rural community in Central Mexico that is home to cows, chickens and other farm animals.
But one night in May, 2007, one resident discovered a bizarre creature about 19 inches tall that didn't resemble any known animal in the world: A pink, mostly hairless creature with large luminous eyes.
Although a picture of the creature exists, many believe it's all just an elaborate hoax, while others are sure this is proof of alien life.
A Science Channel special, "Alien Mummies," which debuted on Nov. 30, purports to solve the mystery of this creature using cutting-edge science, advanced scanning technology and DNA testing, finally seeking to resolve this five-year-old mystery, and other E.T. (extra-terrestrial) anomalies as well.
An advance clip showed off the Metepec monster, but, you've been warned, it's cute and cuddly like an E.T.
