MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - A two-year-old migrant boy found abandoned in Mexico earlier this week had left Honduras with his father, a Honduran consulate official said on Friday.

The boy was found in Veracruz state, alone near a truck that carried more than 100 migrants in suffocating conditions, and surrounded by snack wrappers, half-empty water bottles, and trash bags.

Consul Raul Morazan said it was not clear where the father was or how he had been separated from his child.

"It is shocking and surprising," Morazan, who is based in Veracruz, said. "The question we ask ourselves is why abandon the child."

A woman in Copan, Honduras, who identified herself as the mother using a document that matched the vaccine records the boy carried, told Honduran authorities the boy and his father had left the country with plans to travel to Virginia in the United States where the family had relatives. The trio had planned to reunite there.

Morazan said the woman told authorities she had received a call from the father in recent days and he said they were both well.

Neither Mexican nor Honduran authorities have released the name of the child or the parents. The National Migration Institute of Mexico said it had not yet established a date to transfer the minor back to Honduras.

This is the exact reason they ALL need to be handed over to their countries Embassy or Consulate to transport them BACK home to their relatives within 48 hours of apprehension.

Their Embassy pays to send them back and it will stop. They do not want to pay! Neither do we and they are not our responsibility.

Get them out of our detention centers and on the road back home.

Round up their illegal parents and relatives who are here, deport them, and bar them from ever coming back!

These people are DISGUSTING and we do not want this sick culture in our country.

Look at all the trash. They trash their own countries, they trash the countries they pass through, they trash our border states, and they trash our neighborhoods when they get here. It is sickening. Quit breeding in a mud puddle and clean up your own country!

We now have a massive outbreak of Chickenpox on our border! Shut it down.
