An unusual clash between a 6-foot alligator and a 13-foot python has left two of the deadliest predators dead in Florida's swamps.

I saw that. There is an excellent article on CNN's website(I think) talking about how python are getting to be a huge problem in the Everglades from so many people buying them, keeping them for a few years, and then dumping them in the Everglades when they get so big.

Now that's amazing.
Also, there was a huge 'gator farm in Mississippi that goy destroyed during Katrina. I wonder how much longer it will be until the 'gators that were lost start eating people. That place also had a breeding pair of Nile Crocodiles.
Heeeeeeeeeere puppy puppy! Yum, yum.

Our Boss shot a 12.6' Alligator down here with 2' of tail missing, supposedly it was really close to the state record, it was over 110years old, and weighted 1200lbs.
Now 2 days ago I was in his office and he was showing me pictures of an Alligator that was killed by police in Mississippi that they said was feeding off the dead. Now I didn't see anything else but the pictures, but he said he read it was 22 feet long and weighed over 3500lbs. The police were going to cut open it's stumache and to see if there were any remains of humans that they could do DNA tests on.
