You got me Beast Man. I thought this thread was going to be about Mullet and Hev.
Wow! Huge!
Check out the face on the guy in the wheelchair and the hound dog. We laser shot a gator on the Arkansas river last year that was 14'4"... really scarey looking.
sorry for the dumb question, but I'm assuming that was in AR? don't feel like googling the AR River. BTW, anybody know what part of AL this big ass gator was killed? Also, are these big gators a threat? what do you do with them once you kill them? I tried gator once, didn't really care for it. don't care for frog legs either. I'm kinda a tree hugger when it comes to animals. I believe in hunting when you eat it. I'm a meat eater but don't understand those who kill animals for shits and giggles. Kinda sad to see an animal that size go down unless it is for good reason.Quote:

With all due respect, and I'd never favor a law that prevents folks from hunting these animals because they are no where near endangered just because I don't get off on it. But that animal is prolly around 35-45 years old. Kill it to eat it's tail? I admit, I only tried it once in New Orleans and didn't care much for it. I'm picky about the meat I eat and it's not due to being a PETA 17, it's just the taste. My wife's from Peru and she's tried Guinea Pig where they eat them. They also eat Cow Heart that I tried once and didn't like the taste as it was too strong for me. I've eaten deer 4 times, liked it twice but the other 2 times I did not because it had too strong a taste.Quote:

Gator hunting has a tag system that they only give out so many a year. That many gators needs to be harvested for population control.Quote:

Not only is the gator tail good to eat, people pay good money for boots, purses etc.
I'm an expert in this subject due to watching multiple seasons of swamp people.***
Fair enough and good post / info for the uninformed like myself.Quote:
