back to Reptilian Encounters

Pampa Acha, Iquique Province, Chile, 2004

Dario Riquelme, an Army recruiter, Hernan Cuevas, accompanied by his wife, son and 11-year old daughter Tania were traveling in his Nissan Terrano truck and were approaching an area called “Presencias Tutelares” when they spotted a bizarre creature crossing the road just ahead of their truck. As the stunned Riquelme applied the brakes a second similar appearing humanoid also crossed the street just in front of the truck. They described the humanoids as resembling bipedal “small” dinosaurs or reptiles, with strong muscular thighs. According to the witnesses the humanoids were gray in color, and hairless. They estimated the creatures to have been at least 2 meters in height, and were as close as four meters from the truck. The second humanoid appeared somewhat smaller, and was less clearly seen. The witnesses agreed that both creatures crossed the road at tremendous speed using huge leaps and bounds. Stunned and frightened after the encounter the witnesses stopped the truck and composed themselves before they continued their drive to Arica.
