Why we lock our doors in Louisiana
This is an actual picture taken by the homeowner's neighbor.



And you were worried about the mosquitoes and the heat???

"Delivery"...

"Postman"...

Wow! I wonder if that's a sign that it's ill, you know odd behavior like that.

That's not odd behaviour - the gator is adapting to the new environment humans are imposing on them. Other wild critters are doing the same here, including deer, coons, bears, bobcats, coyotes, foxes, and so on. (yes, we have black bears in LA, including a roadkill example and verified paw-prints, both in semi-suburban areas of my AO - and *I* am far more rural than those locations!) Sharon, if you stay out of the low-lying wet areas, you'll never see them lizards - which is why we live on top of a "sandy ridge" terrain feature!

Actually, they make great garbage disposals. They are cute and quiet. Have a nice smile and only demand attention when they wanna get wet and swim-mine would climb in the tub and hiss like a steams engine. Then he'd rear up on his hind legs and wave his head under the falling water from the tap. :)

The Americans and Russians at the height of the arms race realized that if they continued in the usual manner they were going to blow up the whole world. One day they sat down and decided to settle the whole dispute with one dog fight. They would have five years to breed the best fighting dog in the world and which ever side's dog won would be entitled to dominate the world. The losing side would have to lay down its arms.

The Russians found the biggest meanest Doberman and Rottweiler bitches in the world and bred them with the biggest meanest Siberian wolves. They selected only the biggest and strongest puppy from each litter, removed his siblings which gave him all the milk. They used steroids and trainers and after five years came up with the biggest meanest dog the world had ever seen. Its cage needed steel bars that were five inches thick and nobody could get near it.

When the day came for the dog fight, the Americans showed up with a strange animal. It was a nine foot long Dachshund. Everyone felt sorry for the Americans because they knew there was no way that this dog could possibly last ten seconds with the Russian dog. When the cages were opened up, the Dachshund came out of it's cage and slowly waddled over towards the Russian dog. The Russian dog snarled and leaped out of it's cage and charged the American dachshund. But, when it got close enough to bite the Dachshund's neck, the Dachshund opened it's mouth and consumed the Russian dog in one bite. There was nothing left at all of the Russian dog.

The Russians came up to the Americans shaking their heads in disbelief. "We don't understand how this could have happened. We had our best people working for five years with the meanest Doberman and Rottweiler bitches in the world and the biggest meanest Siberian wolves."

"That's nothing", an American replied. "We had our best plastic surgeons working for five years to make an alligator look like a Dachshund."

You guys are the best! Thanks for keeping up the sense of humor!

And, in spite of living in the "heart of darkness" Michigan, I think I'll just stay here for now. At least we just have killer deer and raccoons to deal with!

Alligator tail is really quite good. I had to cook some once after my Ex killed an alligator. I just fried it up like you would catfish. It wasn't bad at all.

Alligators are very good for disposing of yappy dogs.

This reminded me of something....
When I was living in Florida a while back there was this friend of a friend who had the MOST annoying dog in the world. It would yap and yap and yap and drove us all nuts.

One day we were all sitting outside and there went the little yapper running down by the pond. We couldn't see it from where we were sitting, but we could hear it...yap yap yap....then all of a sudden.....SPLASH!!!......and no more yap.

A gator got it! We were all Florida Gator fans (college football), so we all stood and cheered. Kinda felt bad for the friend of a friend though. :D

Had some canals in the woods near my place in C.Fl. I would shoot gar fish and drag them out for eatin-good stuff. So I'm standing at the edge and pop a coupple-used my .22 as the AK didn't leave much. It only stuns them.

The closest one was arm deep in the water but close enough to grab. Took him back to the Jeep and grabbed a curtain rod to fish the other out with.

Get back and there's is a haze of 'smoke'...stirred up mud where the other gar had been. I figured he'd come to and swam away.

I knelt down with the .22 watching for more gar and noticed a log in the canal that wasn't there before-it was floating towards me about five feet away. I stood up and it was an 8fter.

I went for the .357 but it skeedaddled.

Lived and worked in the Big Swampy. Waded around in waste deep water all morning. We'd climb out at noon for lunch and tossed our scraps to the waiting gators. A few minutes later, back in we went to spend the rest of the work day wading around with the gators. I really enjoyed that job! We were blasting the canals to drain the swamp for "Golden Gates, Retirment Community".

I was told by a former Floridian that there's an alligator in every puddle and the wood roach is the State bird.

That would be <i>Poke Salad Annie</i> or what ever colloquial spelling of the same that you prefer.
