Earlier thread - but yours has some updated info.
Effin dinosaurs should be hunted to extinction.
Dang! The ONE time you want to own a pit bull, so you would have time to run away while the gator is distracred while eating your dog.
“Cline was walking her dog by a lagoon near Wood Duck Road when she was attacked and pulled beneath the water’s surface by the alligator, according to the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office. Cline’s body was found inside the lagoon. The dog, whom Cline was trying to protect, reported the Associated Press, was not injured.”
Harsh penalty to pay for being an idiot and putting herself and dog in harms way. If not the alligator there are also poisonous snakes that could have nailed her and/or dog.
It sounds like a case of a Pitt Bull Gator.
Gators usually drown their larger prey, then wait a few days for decomposition to make it easier to dismember their meal.
A nasty way to go. Prayers up for her family and friends to be comforted.
“A forensic autopsy will be conducted at Medical University in coming days to determine Cline’s cause of death.”
