According to reports in Panama, the teenagers spotted the creature crawling out of a cave while playing in the town of Cerro Azul north of Panama City.
Fearing for the safety as it moved towards them, the youths claim they attacked the beast with sticks before throwing its lifeless body into a pool of water.
All it wanted was to play with the children. And now this. A sad statement on our fear of the unknown.
But at least our new friend will leave a legacy. As Telemetro noted in the original (translated) report, 'while some say it may be a being from another planet, others simply believe that is an animal.'
Some say it's a sloth. We say: It's a lost friend.
