A PRIMITIVE Hunter in Alabama...
The Singing Bowyer:
This picture was taken by a helicopter near SHREVESPORT, LOUISIANA---sorry, not in Alabama...) The original info on this report was incorrect..
The old boy was hanging out in a reservoir behind some houses, so they had to put him down...ALL 25 FEET OF HIM! The game warden in the pic is 6"5"...
sailordad:
i understand the reason for putting him down,being in a residential area and all.
however i personally would like to see them move creatures like that to an are that they could live in,like the swamps in fla. or la.,jmho.
now how would a guy go about getting the teeth from that ;D
they would make cool overlays
25ft of gator,unbeliveible. ive only seen one big croc at a gator farm in St.Auastine fla. that was a 17 ft saltie,a massive creature,didnt realize that fresh water gators grew to that size.

That looks like a freezer full of meat and a bunch of useful parts. Makes you think twice about going into the water. ;D ;D
The Singing Bowyer:
Yes, according to the report, they attempted to try and relocate him....but he wasn't about to cooperate. (SHOCKER)
At 25 feet, I bet he was pushing 3/4 ton or more. It might be difficult to tranquilize a creature like that, and then to have something that could move him would be another matter all together. Shame something so amazing couldn't have been preserved, though...

It wasnt taken in alabama, it was in South carolina
