Chuck had his line out sunday morning and this little pissed off baby got tangled up in it. I tried to get down close to get his pic, And he nearly bit my toes off. Chuck eventually got his leg free.

now, I'm worried about the cat door. We may have unwanted company one day.

Hi mr. gator. Allow me to introduce you to 12 gauge shotgun and his pal #4 express load.
Vile creatures.

awww he is just gona do that thing that he does. Not sure I would want to dangle my feet in the water:)

Pat said...

oh no way Doug. His little foot was tangled up in the line but there was no way we were going grab him to un-tangle him. Thank god he got out after much yanking, on his own.

Cute little things over time become large pet eating nuisances. Then some dumb ass tourist feeds him and he now associates people with food.
Time was they were endangered and so they became protected. They breed like water borne rabbits, they have no real natural enemy and now there's too damn many of them.
When we have the occasional extended dry spell you'll find them in someone's swimming pool, in the garage, the drainage ditch or heading down the side of the road out toward the river.
Screw that. There is only one solution to this infestation.
Ever had gator tail? Tastes kind of like chicken :)

When we first moved to Florida, RAC tried to feed a little gator in the back canal with a piece of chicken on the end of a fishing line. That gator came out of water in a flash and I never saw RAC run so fast in his life...lol

Dougie my dear, more people have been killed from a coconut falling on their head than from a gater attack. Chuck says so maybe we should put a moratorium on coconut trees. hee hee
