welll..those were probably Caimens (cent./south Amer.)
(iirc :) American Alligator, may have been protected @ the time.

At some point doesn’t that stuff become crap anyway?

Seems the sewer works and companies aren’t doing their job.

I can’t tell you how many crap things I’ve thrown away.

Smart Phones, computers that BSOD , Old stuff girlfriends gave me, ABC gum, etc.

The only problem I see here is they should have flushed these things a couple times to break em up into smaller chunks
