Florida Hunters Capture 765 Lb Alligator With Bare Hands
Crocodile Dundee's kin are probably in Florida hunting for reptiles. Last week, two such fellows captured a 346-kilogramme alligator measuring 4 metres. Besides the size of the reptile, what stood out is that the captors of the beast - Keithy Kelley and Kelly Sziy caught and killed the creature using their bare hands.
They were aided by a rope, a few hands and their brute strength. Using bail, the duo captured the alligator on early Sunday morning at St. John's River.
The pair has been hunting the gator, named Lumpy, for several months, reports The Atlanta Journal. After Lumpy was caught, the two hunters brought it to the Alligator Farm for measurement and documentation.
According to Jim Barlington, curator of reptiles at the Alligator Farm, large alligators often measure around 11 feet, but Lumpy was bigger than that at more than 13 feet, making it a rare catch.
The reptile's flesh would be made into processed meat, while Kelley will mount the animal's head on his house's wall. Kelley and Szly are anticipating their next hunting expedition to catch more gators in the future.
