Little green men are no strangers to Roswell, but now one New Mexico botanist says a little green plant has an out-of-this world connection to New Mexico.
David Salman said he was on a seed hunting trip near Roswell when he noticed a faint glow coming from what appeared to be a meteor crater.
He said it turned out the light was coming from a small patch of carnivorous cacti.
Salman said he found a cactus that eats bugs, glows and probably came to earth on a meteor.
He says he scooped up some samples to see if someone could identify them, so far no one has been able to.

A lot of people are going to jump all over this story because of the fact that Roswell happens to be in New Mexico, but I think there’s a far more disturbing story here, and one with more far reaching implications.
Please, explain.
I don't see why the cactus would come to Earth via meteor instead of, say, being a new species native to Earth. The implications would be, of course, very big if it WAS from another place.
I second that.
Forgive my ignorance, but why would people be more interested in it being in NM than it being in Roswell? (1947 and all....)
