Record Gator

A 12' 6" alligator, weighing 492#, was killed in the Mobile area and is a record. If you want to read about this you can find details and pictures at:

Personally, I wouldn't want to be in a boat with a 492# enraged alligator jerking it around! Actually, I wouldn't want to be in a boat with a gator that large anywhere nearby! I think he had reason to be mad since they were throwing hooks at him and in general, causing him pain. They put a couple of bullets in his head after he was alittle worn down from pulling the boat and that was that. Took a group of people to get him to the scales and weigh him.

I have a brother-in-law in FL who used to go gator hunting and I thought he was crazy for going out in a boat at night to do that!
