11-Foot-Long Gator Removed From Resort Island
HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. -- As gators go, the one found in a South Carolina lagoon was downright gargantuan.
The Island Packet of Hilton Head reported that an 11-foot-long, 500-pound alligator was removed from a lagoon on the resort island on Wednesday. It took three gator wrestlers from the Critter Management company and a truck to pull the gator from the lagoon near a church.
A worker said the gator was so big, it was a like a frog in a puddle.
Critter Management owner Joe Maffo said most encounters with gators occur during the spring and early summer. He said the gator probably just found a lagoon where he felt comfortable.
