It would be awful if people were releasing gators there on purpose.

Just awful...

Alligators are scary but crocodiles are more effective.

It would be a shame if a ‘gator somehow swam up to DC and settled in the WH swimming pool. Oh, the huge manatee!

Eagle pass is pretty far removed from the East Texas Bayou country. Wonder how it got there? (Snicker)

The river needs to be stocked with a thousands of these and a law making it a third degree felony to harm one.

When I was a youngster in the 1950s, El Paso had a park downtown with Alligators in a small enclosure. People could sit on the small wall surrounding them and watch them get fed. I went back a few years ago and they were gone. Turns out people would torture the ‘gators with sticks and rocks, so they had to be removed.

“..We should get him some friends....”

Of course! He shouldn’t have to live his life lonely...he needs friends and a lovely new mate!!!
FWiW, there’s some big ole 15-footers that hang out on the banks of Choke Canyon Reservoir near Three Rivers, TX that have been feeding on feral hogs for some time now. They’d most likely love to find new “friends”.....LOL.
