May 17 (UPI) -- Wildlife trappers were called to a Florida school where an "absolute dinosaur of an alligator" came wandering up a path.
The Pinellas County Sheriff's office said deputies responded to a report of a a large alligator on a pathway used by kids who walk to and from a nearby elementary school.
Deputies contacted the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission for help relocating the 12.5-foot gator.
"PCSO remained in the area to keep the public from accidentally stumbling across this absolute dinosaur of an alligator until trappers contracted through FWC arrived," the Sheriff's Office said on social media.
Deputies helped trappers capture the alligator and relocate it to a more suitable habitat far from the school.
Also, Florida is the lightning strike state capital of the US.
Sharks, water moccasins, sinkholes, rip currents, giant roaches, the state bird is the mosquitoe, hurricanes and the tornadoes that hurricanes spawn, and the latest....MALARIA.
And let’s not forget the Senior drivers...
Florida’s gators help to scare away Leftists.
If only...
In my opinion, I feel there’s no reason for Alligator leather boots to be so expensive.
I was referring to that photograph. Looks big,
not being really knowledgeable that’s what I’d do.
(mebbe not good sale to TonyLamas?)
I would say he is parroting erf lovers. Maybe not.
He’s had a pretty good winter.
Wow Billy Napier is doing a great recruiting job.
The Pope took a couple of days off to visit the conservative state of Florida for some sightseeing. He was cruising along Alligator Alley in the PopeMobile when there was a frantic commotion just at the edge of the vegetation.
A helpless Democrat, wearing sandals, shorts, a ‘Save the Manatees’ hat and a ‘F*ck Trump’ T-shirt, was screaming while struggling frantically and thrashing around trying to free himself from the grasp of a 14-foot alligator.
As the Pope watched in horror, a group of Republican boaters came racing up. One quickly fired a 44 magnum into the alligator’s head. The other two pulled the bleeding, semiconscious Democrat from the jaws of the huge gator. Then using their AR-15s, the three boaters finished off the gator and two of them threw it onto the back of their boat while the other tenderly placed the injured Democrat in the boat’s back seat.
As they prepared to leave, the Pope summoned them to come over. ‘I give you my blessing for your brave actions!’ he told them. ‘I heard there was a bitter hatred between Republican Boaters and Democratic Leftist activists but now I’ve seen with my own eyes that this is not true.’
As the Pope drove off, one boater asked his buddies ‘Who was that guy?’
‘It was the Pope,’ another replied. ‘He’s in direct contact with Heaven and has access to all wisdom.
‘Well,’ the logger said, ‘he may have access to all wisdom but he doesn’t know squat about gator hunting! By the way, is the bait still alive, or do we need to go back to Fort Lauderdale and get another one?’
You’re not much fun at parties, are you?
Drop that bad boy in the Rio Grande. 😏
You’re not usually coherent, are you?
Depends on whether or not your neighbors might react to gunfire and how good you are and skinning gators.
At least you were intelligent enough to find the “Post Reply” icon. I’ll give you that.
wow, I bet you’re proud of that best you’ve got
“Well,’ the logger said, ‘he may have access to all wisdom but he doesn’t know squat about gator hunting! By the way, is the bait still alive, or do we need to go back to Fort Lauderdale and get another one?’”
Hunters don’t know squat about gators. They love dead meat.
They would come up on the back lawn when I lived in Jax on the Orgtega. Never got over the fence into the pool tho’.
Yeah but Florida has waaay bigger ones.
Ok. I chuckled at that. Maybe a bit too much ... 🤣🤣🤣
