Don't Drink The Water In Florida!

One-eyed, 3-legged alligator found on Fla. beach

SEACREST BEACH, Fla. -It sounds more like something out of a freak show: a one-eyed, 3-legged alligator. The gator was captured Thursday morning in Seacrest Beach by Walton County officials. The animal was less than five feet long and had somehow found its way to the beach.
A family visiting from Chicago called it the perfect day at the beach. They learned how to tell apart an alligator from a crocodile.
The rare gator was taken to a safe location and returned without harm to the wild.

And as always,thanks for listening!

If that's what the water does to you in Florida, can you imagin what kind of damage the food will do! Take care and enjoy your weekend,

Well at least you have a better chance of getting away from him if he is trying to eat you.

The only one-eyed alligator I ever say was about three inches long, but it didn't have any legs.

They should have taken the poor bastard to a sanctuary. Evidently his nickname isn't "Lucky."

I saw plenty of gators in Florida when I lived there. However this one takes the cake! (Hugs)Indigo
