The Alligator That Liked Chicken









Nearly forgot to post this one, about a week and a half ago me Mike and Keith went to see the alligator up the road,
Keith was going home and Mike wanted to see the alligator do a death roll, as if.
Anyway the day before they had been to Wal-Mart to buy a chicken, a whole one that is, am just surprised they did not get a frozen one, could have knocked it out with that.
The idea was throw it in and see Al do a death roll, not sure if alligators do death rolls or is it only crocodiles, will have to Google that.
So there we were with a chicken about to throw it to an alligator, there’s Keith unwrapping it, me and Mike taking photos, to any one watching must have looked funny.
Al came straight out of the water when he saw us, he’s used to people feeding him. Anyway in went the chicken, Al grabbed it, problem is it was nearly as big as him and he didn’t seem to know what to do with it.
No death roll he just got it and went back in the water and lay there with it in his mouth, we got fed up after a bit and went for lunch. We were sort of thinking that we may come back and find him belly up in the pond with a chicken stuck in his throat.
Guess we should have tied a rope round the chicken’s leg before throwing it in and had a tug of war with an alligator, maybe next time, our luck and he would have pulled one of us in, try explaining that to NASA.
Probably he prefers KFC or Poppies chicken anyway and not raw meat, don't think we thought this one through properly
