Tony D. Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 When I lived on a small pond, a 'gator was in our yard. My wife went out the back & as she slammed the screen door, it jumped back into the water. It was about 5ft. long. We are in a golf community now & there is a pond on the greens across the road from us. Last year, an alligator was walking down the road. It was removed by a company that does that job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the Gulf Coast states like Louisiana have alligators. I’ve seen alligators up close in the Louisiana Bayou. I’d seen that footage of the crocodile before and knew it wasn’t a hoax. I also found this: The record size for a saltwater crocodile from Papua New Guinea to be considered authentic by Guinness was a 6.32 m (20 ft 9 in) specimen shot by Herb Schweighofer in May 1966 along the northeastern coast. This specimen had a belly girth of 2.74 m (9 ft 0 in). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpaul1 Posted October 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) biggest alligator ever recorded was around 5 m biggest saltwater croc ever recorded was 10 m (south India) biggest black caïman ever recorded was 7.7 m (Amazonas) it seems that for gators above 4.5 is considered as exceptional. while for black caïmans, and saltwater crocodiles is considered as exceptional a length above 6 m. the 10 m being an extremelly rare case. the Indian croc has been spotted alive, so maybe it's still alive.. and yes saltwater crocs are found only in south Florida in North america. as we often do on that site, i use the word croc to say gator Edited October 5, 2020 by jpaul1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw her in several things around that time then not a whole lot else. Married to Danny Elfman. My wife is a big Boingo fan. I think she stopped working like 20 years ago to start a family. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpaul1 Posted December 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 (edited) i warn you it's a little bit graphic. so if you have your kid on your knees, maybe you should take him/her away for a minute. but i post, because i think it's important to remind what crocs are. and if you get tempted someday to pet them, one should keep this in mind https://imgur.com/gallery/0jZr5CT Edited December 27, 2020 by jpaul1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
