Are you just messing with my user name or did they really do that? All things gator and bear are for some bizarre reason hugely interesting to me. If true, was dog more effective than chicken as bait? Or was it simply a matter of availability?
To: RonDog
Wow, then she’s even more immoral than I realized. She didn’t hunt the gator for food, or the hide. She hunted it as a trophy. The only thing she was concerned about was its size.

No. She left a few details out, according to the story. “But the .22-caliber gun they had wasn’t powerful enough to put the animal down so Mara-Christian used a knife to sever the animal’s spinal cord at the base of its head.”
She stabbed it to death.

Why on earth do others have to conform with your notions of how the world should be?
Especially in this case..
That little beastie would happily scramble our of the water and drag down a kid or even an adult human and only stop when it was full.
Hooray for our species..

Hee! Hee! Hee! That's got to be one of the funniest posts of the day. She didn't kill it for food. She didn't kill it for the hide. Damn it! She killed it to save the children!

seems like a pretty evenly matched contest.

“The Americam record gator was taken in Louisiana and was over 19 feet with an est. wt of 2,000 lbs.”
I bet this baby was 1100 lbs plus. I lived in Florida for a while. One of my workmates lived north of Clearwater. He had a gator take up residence in his backyard. Cleared out any dogs that wandered by. Nasty critters, they are.
To: chooseascreennamepat
OOOPS. The article says 1025 lbs. I was close, though.

If you find yourself in a fair fight your tactics suck!

Lol, thanks for the thought Ron, I’ll take it under consideration! My computer’s about to explode from all the saved graphics!
Amazing story.

Hey Alice, you stumbled into the wrong place. Maybe you meant to be here:

Hunting is what it is, meat and trophys. If you don’t like it.... DON’T DO IT! And mind your own beeswax.

How the hell did you get that idea. I read nothing that indicated that she would not eat the alligator or use the hide.
Get off your high horse Kranky.

If it doesn’t quit raining, we’ll have them in the yard before the weekend’s out.
