This gator was shot recently in the bayou a mile or two from my house. now this not a bayou in the swamps, but a very populated area with water skiers and fishermen every day. It was hanging around a friend of mine's wharf. there was a 8-10 footer that usd to eat my father's ducks many years ago 1/4 mile from where this one was killed. wonder if it is the same one all grown up
