On Tuesday, a Florida man wrestled an 8-foot, 8-inch alligator from a swimming pool in Parkland, Florida.
Gator Boys‘ Paul Bedard posted an eye-popping photograph of him lifting the giant reptile above his head like a prize after the safe morning capture.
Bedard said he got a call in the morning that the gator walked through the pool screen and into the pool. He said he had not had a good-sized gator in a swimming pool in about a year or so, so he “was kind of looking forward to this when [he] got the call.â€
Bedard said it is fun to capture gators in swimming pools because the water is clear and the animal does not have anywhere to hide, so he can play around with it until the gator is tired enough to capture and remove.
