Club Q Q107-Loyalty Club (Southern ON Only) v2

The photographs of this deer-eating alligator were taken from the air by Terri Jenkins, a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service District Fire Management Officer. She was preparing to ignite a prescribed fire at Harris Neck National Wildlife Refuge, about 40 miles south of Savannah, Georgia, on March 4, 2004. The photo has
“One advantage of fire work is you get to see that 12-14 footers are common from Santee National Wildlife Refuge in South Carolina to Coastal South Carolina to Georgia’s coast,” said Jenkins. “It looks like the alligator population is doing extremely well.”

The gator being held up by the excavator is actually only 13 feet 1 inch and the picture was taken in Texas. This image is another example of how positioning can exaggerate the apparent size of objects in photographs. the gator is in the foreground of the photogragh, with its head towards the camera, while the game warden strolls in the background, making the reptile, particularly its head, proportionally larger than it really is.

All were real photos, but of two different gators. The one in the lake with the deer in its jaws was in Georgia in 2004. The larger one strung up was in Texas in 2005. Someone put it online and made up the rest of it for the gullible folks out there.

The helicopter pilot and the game warden were in communication via radio's here is a transcript of their conversation.

'Air1 have you a visual on the gator, over'

'Approaching inlet now, over'

'Roger Air1'

'Gator sighted.. Looks like it has a small animal in its mouth.. moving in, over'

'Roger Air1'

'Holy Crap it's a Deer!'

'confirm Air1... did you say Deer?, Over'

'Roger... a Deer in its mouth.. looks like a full sized buck.. that's a big gator, were gonna need more men, Over'

'Roger Air1..can you give me a idea on size of animal, over'

'Its big 25 feet at least, please advise Gator is heading to inlet.. do I pursue?, over'

That has to be a HUGE gator to have a whole deer in its mouth!

The deer was later found to be a mature Stag and was measured at 11feet!

Are you ready to go skiing on Lake Wiess ?!

This alligator was found between Centre and Leesburg , Alabama near a house! Game wardens were forced to shoot the alligator- guess he wouldn't cooperate...

Anita and Charlie Rogers could hear the bellowing in the night.
Their neighbors had been telling them that they had seen a mammoth alligator in the waterway that runs behind their house,
but they dismissed the stories as exaggerations.

'I didn't believe it,' Charles Rogers said, but they realized the stories were, if anything, understated.

Alabama Parks and Wildlife game wardens had to shoot the beast.
Joe Goff, 6'5' tall, a game warden, walks past the 28-foot, 1-inch alligator 8.5 metres he shot and killed in their back yard.

A $30M regret:

A lottery player in Newfoundland voided a ticket that would have been worth $30 million.:yikes:

A person bought a Lotto Max ticket that contained the winning numbers for the May 31 Jackpot but then had the retailer void the ticket, Atlantic Lottery Corp spokesman Jennifer Dalton told QMI Agency.

The lottery corporation reviews the numbers on all tickets after a draw - including those that have been voided Dalton said.

It was during the regular review that the corporation discovered the winning combination was on a ticket purchased at a convenience store south of St. John's.

The lottery corporation doesn't know why the player decided to void the ticket after it was printed.

Wow, someone could have won the 30 Mil if only they had kept that ticket- yikes!!!!!!
