Daytona Beach, FL - A large alligator was shot and killed by a Daytona Beach police officer after it allegedly made threatening moves against nearby residents.
In his monthly “Ask The Chief” appearance on WNDB’s Marc Bernier program, Daytona Beach police chief Mike Chitwood says the incident started around 12:43pm Friday at a retention pond on the 1000 block of George W. Engram Boulevard.
“There’s a woman who said that her kids had been going in through the hole in the fence and feeding the gator and poking it with a stick,” Chitwood told Bernier.

Did you see that Elizabeth gave the grieving Glenn Guist a black Lab puppy *Pepper*? What a lovely thing to do.

Yep, alot of stuff tastes like alligator. The only reptiles we have up here that have a similar chewy texture are snappin turtles and timber rattlers, though the latter are more on the tender side like chicken.
Only had gator a few times; I’m sure they got different types of meat like a turtle. I’d enjoy dismantling a few just to see what all...
