Probably the best part of their education that day.

Oh, my goodness! I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Obviously, very poor judgement on the bus driver's part. However, what fun for the boys!

(I know - it was stupid. Any flames will be ignored. It was still cool, though.)

Hmmm. I'm all for boys having great fun, but if anything had happened to one or more of those boys there would be h*ll to pay. The bus driver should have considered the dangers involved and told them to catch gators on their own time, imho.

Those boys have some stones. I grew up in Gator Country, and a four footer ain't no gecko.

"If the facts I'm hearing are true, then at the least she used some of the worst judgment someone could use in endangering kids," said Pasco schools superintendent John Long.

Oh, what a killjoy. It's not like she let the alligator drive or anything.

Fun is fun but what were those boys gonna do with it? Gators are protected I think and this one was just going across the road to have a smoke or something. The driver will probably lose her job and the boys will get some animal rights group camping out in the driveway and possibly a citation from the Dept of the Interior for a court appearance along with a fine for Dad...not worth it I'd say.

As a junior in HS, we took a field trip to the Okefenokee (thanks for the spell checker, FR) swamp in Georgia.

We captured some cotton mouth moccasins and assorted other critters for the biology lab.

I can think of at least 5 different things the teacher would have gotten in trouble for on that field trip if it had been today Lets see, endangering children, capturing animals, poisonous snakes in class room, no guide, no trip plan (we just went), no parental permission slips, on and on and on. You know what, tho, I learned a lot about swamps and my self, wading through belly deep swamp water, and slightly scared.

He took the gator out to the nearby Withlacoochee River ...

If your son were on the bus and he had been bitten and drowned while chasing the gator would you still be feeling the same way? I bet you would already be at your lawyer's office.

That was just the Pre-Test (F-Kitty). Wait till that have to take the FGAT and the Gator is 8' Long!

Will they still be able to capture in under 15 minutes! or will they fail the test and lose a digit?

I love it!

Let boys be boys...Steve Irwin would be proud. Crikey, she's a beeeauty!

"The COOLEST darned Schoolbus driver EVER!"

You've been around here long enough to know the protocol for posting headlines. You're so vain.

Go Ahead, Kids, Chase the Alligator

A fifth boy happened to have a roll of electrical tape handy, which took care of keeping the reptile's jaws shut.

I think this is my favorite part of the story.

"Be prepared."

Sounds like the woman who drives the bus in that kid's show "The Magic School Bus".

Very cool but a little ditzy.
