Okay, I've been wanting to go to Lake Caddo in my kayak to get some GoPro footage of gators while I fish... this is making me reconsider. That thing could bite my boat in half.

I have no problem with gator hunting since it was legal and to keep population in order. However him stating his love and fascination for dinosaurs followed by shooting a living one is ironic lol

Alligators almost never attack humans. Crocodiles are the dangerous ones.

I definitely don't want to encounter a gator bigger than my yak. One this size would definitely get the blood flowing. He's a bigun.

I like your pictures of animals bud and enjoy your posts, but we are not in Africa so crocs are really irrelevant to the conversation of killing a 14footer round here, and smaller alligators than 14ft do eat/attack humans/kids and our pets.

Here is a list of just fatalities by gators, someone want to research all the non fatal attacks in Fl, AL, MS, TX, LA please post.

That dinosaur lived a good life, but I'd rather us live on and enjoy the water then him.

Send me a 34 size belt

Some of those descriptions are really entertaining, and some are really disturbing.

I like how the first one was a guy running from police. Then further down a kid my age got killed while "swimming and harassing small alligators." Seems like some of these were Darwinism at work... thinning out the village idiots. rolfmao

The second largest gator caught in Texas came from choke canyon this last alligator season. I have seen some monsters there as well. I have pictures of one that would surely push 14 ft if not longer.
