Lucky. Usually the spin once they clamp on. That generally rips the limb off your body.

The agency issued the Gaffs a warning. You're always supposed to call them in to remove a gator in a situation like this.

Maybe before too long, we can remove gators at will and then the agency can be removed because it is no longer needed. I don't like that tone....

Like they are suposed to wait to get a wild animal off the arm. That’s just inane.

Shudda shot the gator, skinned him, dressed him out and fried him up.

To hell with calling the gubmint. They’re not here to help.

Visions of giving Fish and Wildlife a warning with the broom but that would probably end with jail.

There’s a reason our cat is now an indoor cat. She kept bringing trophies into the living room. The last one was a live snake that had wrapped itself around her several times. When I got it off her, I beat it to a pulp with an old cast iron skillet.

They probably called 911, and the cop that always follows the paramedics calls Fish and Wildlife when he hears the victim’s story....

Skin him, Saute’ him, and shut up...

Heck Florida has the Castle Doctrine, stand bye to cook up some gator...someone mentioned deep fried, but roasted/BBQ is great as well.

They spin when they are in the water not when they are on land; they can’t swim in the air.
