This is just random, but thought I’d put it here. I put a couple of pictures in the Where’s Your Dog thread.

Grandson spotted this little alligator in the creek beside our house. This is a very small creek that runs into a larger creek that runs along the back of our property. Have lived here >35 years & never even a hint of one. :oops:

We called the wildlife conservation people & they are going to come & relocate it. They have 2 other alligator relocations they have to do first.

It’s little, but I’ll be glad when they remove it.
You should keep it as a pet until it grows up. Then it's gator nuggets and a new purse. :turkey:

I think I’d rather my Grandson & dogs be able to play in the woods and creek without worrying about alligators.? I worry enough over snakes!:rolleyes:

We kept snakes as pets. And toads, tadpoles/frogs, turtles... No gators in the north or we may have had one of those too.

I always had these too. My mom would scream when I'd walk through the door with a garden snake in my hands. :surprised:?

We had one on the kitchen counter in an aquarium. Mom wouldn't feed it but she didn't mind it being there. One time mom asked why I threw so many worms in the aquarium, I said I didn't. Turns out we had 20 some baby snakes in there. :facepalm:

I told my son the only way he could have a snake is if he kept it outside, so he never got one. Now he has 3 in aquariums at his house?

Feed him/her some of those green peppers, it'll move away on its own.

Or…he might love them so much he’d never leave.?
Then you could kill 2 birds with one stone. Ship both the Gator and the bell peppers to Kent.o_O?
