Florida woman keeps a 11 year old alligator as a pet and even brings him for motorcycle rides around town. Authorities are trying to seize the Gator and she is protesting. How long before "Rambo" decides to draw first blood?

LINK

"A Florida woman said state officials are making her give up her beloved pet alligator — a gentle giant named Rambo who is potty trained, understands sign language and loves to dress up in costumes — because he’s grown too big.



Notice the mini biker jacket

“He’s like my son. He’s my family,” Rambo’s owner Mary Thorn told the Daily News Tuesday. “He’s not a normal gator. He has never been a normal gator.”

He's 11 years old. Probably just an exceptional beast.

Let her keep it.

How stupid do you have to be to have a gator in your home?

I hope so. Otherwise, that means she probably has a kid.

Last year we were watching an LSU game at a friend's house, and one of his female friends from work showed up with a 2ft pet alligator.

I had them as pets as a kid for all of a day before the little bastards would bite you, but hers was dofferent. She raised it literally from the day it was born. It wouldn't bite you, even trying to make it bite your finger.

And if you put it on the ground, it ran from person to person in the shop begging for food

She bathed him with some kind of natural coconut shampoo and he didn't stink either.

I'll see if I can find a picture on facebook.

This looks like a self-correcting problem......Let it ride. The before and after pics will be good.
