This alligator was found between Athens and Palestine , Texas near a house.
Game wardens were forced to shoot the alligator- guess he wouldn't cooperate...
Anita and Charlie Rogers could hear the bellowing in the night.
Their neighbors had been telling them that they had seen a mammoth alligator in the waterway that runs behind their house,
but they dismissed the stories as exaggerations.
"I didn't believe it," Charles Rogers said.
Friday they realized the stories were, if anything, understated.
Texas Parks and Wildlife game wardens had to shoot the beast,
Joe Goff, 6'5" tall, a game warden with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department,
walks past a 23-foot, 1-inch alligator that he shot and killed in their back yard.
I think that the Texas Game and Wildlife wardens made a huge mistake when they shot this beast.
With a little planning they easily could have transplanted it to the Rio Grande River . Now
that should have cut down on the illegal migration just a tad!!
This picture was taken by a KTBS helicopter flying over Lake Conroe !
(For those of you who are not local, Lake Conroe is near Conroe , TX )
That has to be a HUGE gator to have a whole deer in its mouth!

I agree that they shouldn't have killed it. But releasing it in the ocean? Huh? American Alligators live in freshwater environments... I can't picture an Alligator swimming along in the ocean somewhere. I think they probably should have taken it and put it in a zoo or some kind of place where it could be monitored.

Even if it is only 15 feet long or so, to have his jaws clamped around the middle of a 500 lb deer and swim with it is still pretty impressive.

I'm just trying to compare that cop with the gator and I'm guessing the gator is about 18 feet long, so the story isn't too far from being completely true.

It's probably not 23 feet. If you double the cop's height, there's only a couple of feet more for the alligator.
But 18 feet is possible.
