Jesús "Chuy" Aceves was born in Loreto, Zacatecas, Mexico and is the second person in his family born with a rare condition known as hypertrichosis. His face is covered with hair, making him resemble the legendary wolfman or, as some call him, a monkey man. He is married and has two daughters, both of whom have the condition. His sister, Lili, was also born with hypertrichosis. She is married with one son, and works as a police officer in Mexico. Many in his family believe that they are descendants of Julia Pastrana, the "Monkey Girl". In 2005, Aceves shaved for the first time for the documentary ''It's Not Easy Being a Wolf Boy'' for the BBC. He shaved in the hope of getting a "regular" job so he could work near his home and not leave his family for long periods of time. Unfortunately, the pay of a regular job was not as good as that in a freak show or circus. He is currently performing in the United Kingdom with The Circus of Horrors. He is the first person with hypertrichosis to perform in the UK in thirty years. In 2007, he was featured in the books ''Ripley's Believe It or Not!'', and ''Guinness World Records''. ==Television appearances== *''It's Not Easy Being a Wolf Boy'' (BBC) *''Human Mutants'' (BBC) *''Grand Prix of Human Wonders'' (Japan) *''The Maury Show'' "Chuy, The Wolf Man" a feature length documentary film by Eva Aridjis (Mexico) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jesús Aceves」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
