Alligators in the Sewers?...

I have never even HEARD of an 18' Alligator!!... Probably because down here some Coon-a** would have eaten him before he attained this size... LOL... :0))))

Look at the enormity of this monster alongside the man standing next to him!

I wonder what they did with him?... My mouth is watering... LOL... :0))))

Florida Power & Light crew putting in lines for an addition to the Orlando International Airport found the following in a culvert they were using...

See the two (2) pictures below:

Florida Power & Light Gator Florida Power & Light Rattlers

The gator is/was 18' 2' long!

The rattlesnake roundup totaled 87!

We thank Florida Power & Light for sharing these pictures.

Never ate alligator - they don't sell it at Homeland.

Figures, you can find most anything in the sewer here in Florida... Did you know, we even have an open season here for hunting Boas and Pythons in the Everglades???

BTW, Gator tastes great! Not a bit like chicken, more like frog legs...

Put your nightmares to bed, Kelly... I don't think you'll have an issue with that fella (or anything closely resembling him) sneaking up through your toilet... ESPECIALLY in Oklahoma... LOL... :0))))

It tastes pretty good actually... Kind of a cross between chicken and crab... ALMOST.

I did know that, dat... It's because irresponsible pet owners turn them loose when they get too large to handle. You should have to have a license to own the things IMO... Just like any other wild or dangerous animal.

It's the snakes that give me the willies, not the alligator. I just about had a cow in the front yard when I took my dogs out one night and one of my cats was torturing a five-foot-long thick green snake who was in a striking pose but had no fangs or teeth that I could see. Hubby saved me from being viciously gummed to death by the frightened, bleeding thing and I had nightmares for a week!
