Narratives:

[Ref. jv1:] JACQUES VALLEE:

In his catalogue of UFO landings, Jacques Vallée indicates that on May 2, 1958, in Bogota, Colombia, eight people working in a wood saw a green creature with scaly skin and very long arms. The pointed nails of its long fingers nearly touched the ground.

Vallée indicates that his source is "Dischi Volanti, by L. Bulgarini."

[Ref. dj1:] DONALD JOHNSON:

Donald Johnson indicates that on May 2, 1958, eight people working in a forest near Santa Fe de Bogota, Colombia, saw a green creature with scaly skin and very long arms. The pointed nails of its long fingers nearly touched the ground.

Donald Johnson indicates that the sources are Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, case 467, citing L. Bulgarini; David F. Webb and Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case A0460.

[Ref. lg1:] LUIS R. GONZALES MANSO:

Luis R. Gonzalez Manso notes in his FirstHumCat catalogue that in Bogota, Colombia, on May 2, 1958, eight people working in a wood saw a green creature with scaly skin and very long arms. The pointed nails of its long fingers nearly touched the ground.

Luis Gonzales points out that there is no UFO involved and indicates that his sources are the MAGONIA Catalogue case #467 [Vallée] and L. Bulgarini, Dischi Volanti.

Points to consider:

Valley has again recorded in his UFO landings catalogue a story with no UFO.

I did not find any other information than Vallée's summary and copies thereof.

It is quite possible that the desperately meager story is about something of the same sort of stuff than the one in Milton, USA, in 1975.
