They were saving the duct tape to reattach the arm.

Yeah. We should be "evolved" to the point that we never ever make mistakes ever again. How long have we been at this? Billions and billions and billions of years, to hear tell it.

What is the matter with people??

Why didn't the croc swallow the arm? Doesn't like Japenese food?
Why wasn't it being sedated inside a more secure area?The vet was showing off?
Why didn't the croc submerge, rather than posing for the paparazzi?Celebrity Photo op?

This is why you use tranquilizers.

The guy frankly had it coming.

To be truthfull that photo looks to be photoshopped. Notice that the crock is holding the arm in front of where it was severed.

Well, Amos Moses was a Cajun
He lived by himself in the swamp.
He hunted alligator for a livin'
Just knock 'em in the head with a stump.
The Lousisana law gonna get you, Amos!
It ain't legal huntin' alligator down in the swamp, boy!

Well, everybody blamed his old man
For makin' him mean as a snake.
When Amos Moses was a boy,
His Daddy would use his for alligator bait.
Tie a rope around his waist and throw him in the swamp!

About forty-five minutes southeast of Thibodeaux, Lousisiana
Lived a man called Doc Milsap and his pretty wife Hanna.
Well, they raised up a son who could eat up his weight in groceries.
Named him after a man of the cloth,
Called him Amos Moses.

Now all the folks around south Louisiana
Said Amos was a hell of a man.
He could trap the biggest,
The meanest alligator,
And just use one hand.
That's all he got left cuz the alligator bit it!
Left arm gone clean up to the elbow!

Well, the Sheriff got wind that Amos
Was in the swamp tracking alligator skin.
So he snuck in the swamp, gonna get the boy.
But he never come out again.
Well, I wonder where the Louisiana Sheriff went to?
You can sure get lost in the Louisiana Bayou!

About forty-five minutes southeast of Thibodeaux, Lousisiana
Lived a cat called Doc Milsap and his pretty wife Hanna.
Well, they raised up a son who could eat up his weight in groceries.
Named him after a man of the cloth,
Called him Amos Moses.

Set out on 'em Amos.
Make it count, Son!

He might have just grabbed and yanked, tearing the arm off at the elbow joint rather than severing it.

I once hired a contractor to build an addition to my house. When he started a sentence with, "I'm going to tell you the truth...." - he lied.

Nothing personal, eastforker; just a true story that always comes to mind when someone starts like that. :)
