Massive Alligator

Friend sent me this in an E-mail.

Kind of lame they killed it IMO. I don't know how they would have caught it lol, but it sucks they couldn't have just re-located it.

Jokes aside, i believe Primeval is about a crocodile over in Africa.

It would be insanely hard to relocate a gator that big, i don't think tranquilizer can pierce the croc's skin. That thing would be **** near impossible to control, they really didn't have a choice.

man that's such crap they killed it. that lake is its natural habitat and we're all up in his grill, messin up his food supplyz so it has to wander through people's yards to find food. it's not his fault. and it's a d*mn shame they had to kill it.
