Have you heard about the great alligator hunt?

Question

On September 21st there will be a great alligator hunt in the sewers of Little Rock ,Arkansas.Apparently we have 150-275 alligators living in the sewers and reservoirs of Little Rock. There is great concern that they will soon mate and local leaders are afraid baby alligators will start coming up through toilets. They have issued 40 permits for the great hunt. ( Which I have heard is going to be on ESPN 2) On the day of the hunt they want no one to flush, do laundry, etc. so as not to hamper the hunters. While I find the idea of killing the gators incredibly cruel - I have to laugh at the idea of 40 Billy Bobs skulking through the sewers of a major city in the dark armed with guns and trying to shoot alligators. The possibilities for mayhem are endless when you think about it. Guns and sewer gas? Armed men in a confined space? Personally, I am rooting for the gators. What are your opinions about what sounds like a bad Saturday Night Live skit?

Answer 1

Alligators are not native to Little Rock area.How do you think the best way to get rid of them before a child get eaten by one?

Answer 2

Sounds like a lot of fun. Wish I could be there for that. Probably have a big bunch of fried alligator afterward too.

Answer 3

I feel sorry for them too, but you really have to think of it this way, What if one were to hurt a child?





I wish they would try to do it in a more humane way, possibly live traps or such.
