Légende
Julia Pastrana the Mexican bearded woman (1834-1860). She suffered from congenital hirsutism combined with gingival hyperplasia. Displayed in the US as a circus attraction and the result of union between a woman and a bear, her manager made her pregnant and sold tickets for people to observe the birth. A boy was born but died and the mother also died within a few days.
