Christmas Card of the Year? Mayor Jorge Santini Reveals Baffling Family Photo

What do you think of when you think of Christmas? Do you think about family? Jesus? Presents? What about a jaguar mauling an antelope in front of a smiling family? Jorge Santini, the Mayor of San Juan, recently unveiled his annual Christmas card and the public is just a little bit confused.

The picture was so strange that it made its way to the Awkward Family Photo blog.

The Huffington Post reports that message on the card reads: “That you may illuminate your dream this Christmas.”

Ever dream of watching a jaguar eat an antelope?

The Santini family took several other photos during their Christmas photo shoot, and they’re all a little strange.

Here’s a Christmas Card if penguins, instead of jaguars, represent the holiday season for you.

And if you prefer creepy looking bears…

Santini said that the Christmas photos were his way of promoting the San Juan Wildlife Museum. Do these photos make you want to go see the San Juan Wildlife Museum? Or do they give you an uncontrollable urge to point and laugh?

Is Jorge Santini’s Christmas Card the most ridiculous card you’ve seen this year?

    I am not only disturbed by the lovely stuffed mauling, but also the strange model like pose of the youngest child.

  10. It's just a jaguar receiving a nice Christmas antelope…i don't see what is wrong. Animals should be able to receive Christmas gifts too.

    Sick and crule

  12. Nothing says "Christmas" like survival of the fittest.

  13. My favorite part is the youngest daughter who's got that "I'm a star" twist to her head going on.

    I'm Puerto Rican and is the most stupid and ugly Christmas card ever, I mean those animals don't have anything to do with our Christmas tradition or even live here… Our most and important tradition is the birth of Jesus, not this crap…

  15. Stephen Bush I'm also fond of the penguin whispering sweet nothings in the second picture.

  16. Hell no it isn't.

  17. You know what, SKIP! This is RIDICULOUS! We don't have that kind of animal there….weird!

    I LOVE IT! Its amazing! and he got what he wanted, "attention" now many people is going to make a stop at the museum just to get a picture in from of those "exotic" and "amazing" animals; that is nothing that you haven't seen in Discovery or Animal Planet; I LOVE his 7 yrs old daughter, soooo sassy! Disney execs, there is your next star! Merry Christmas to the Santini Family! Santini 2013!

    Mayor Jorge Santini should be 100% ashamed of himself and his DISGUSTING Christmas card. I hope they run him out of office. I wish I could tell him in person how he sickens me.

  20. Amen Lara….I could not believe what I saw in that video.

    these ppl(??) represent a large group of electors~! WTH??

  24. Maybe he meant Merry Carnivores? They could be members of People for Eating Tasty Animals. They could be trying to avoid faux fur. Lastly it could be a case of brain freeze, a real snafu.

    It's what's going to happen to his opponent during next year's elections campaign. We have no such animals, much less snowfall, which means they are illuminating their own dream that perhaps snow will fall if PR becomes a state.

    there's a picture of the family Christmas card using cocaine..with a white substance under his nose and it is sad because it also includes childrens…

  29. I wonder who said "Wow, that's a great idea!".

  30. The mayor made a series x-mas cards because he is promoting the San Juan Wildlife Museum , one of his accomplishments. He is the founder of that museum.

  31. LOL they are already selling t shirts about this! http://www.axolotwear.com
