Woman Defends Dog Against Gator, Gets Citation
Topic: National News

We have a shocking little theory about Florida's gator problem; it was perpetrated by students from the University of Florida, who purchased hundreds of alligators from pet shops during their basketball team's Final Four run, and then after winning the championship, tossed them in the swamp. This can be the only reason the alligator attacks are getting this bad.

Former Marine Candy Frey received a warning citation from police after a 3 foot gator cruised through the dog door of her home and attacked her golden retriever. The USMC training kicked in, and after using her daughter to help her push the beast back through the tiny door, she blasted it four times with a shotgun.

Police and animal control showed up, issued her the warning, and then simply put the gator back in the lake, except with a few small holes in it. We think they should've blown this sucker away with their own shotgun, preferably loaded with slugs instead of buckshot. Because now that it knows how to get in to someone's home, it's never going to stop.
