That's one of the biggest I've seen
And I've been looking at large gator pictures for the past 30 years.
Central Florida is serious swamp land, and there are lots of canals and ditches for run off. You NEVER want to go in wading anywhere near them, and as more and more communities are built up in this swampland, the gators get displaced and are more aggressive.
I'm surprised they didn't just shoot that one. Looks like they broke it's shoulder tying it, and I don't know who muzzled it with duct tape, but I'd be having nightmares for weeks if I was near that thing.
Snakes....a whole other story.
