Difficult to imagine how a cold blooded reptile has the energy to attack anything in this temp. Musta laid out in the sun all day to juice up.

That's some scarey stuff, NF. Glad he's ok, sort of? Ain't no way I'd be puttin out decoys or sending out a dog if that happened to me. Only thing we hafta worry about here is the occasional mountain lion or bear snoopin around the house.

[quote]Isn't that pretty strange for a gator to be out and about, much less aggressive, when it's in the 30's? [/quote

Yep but maybe it could have been a female protecting her nest. Although I think that would be more likely in the summer.

Greetings and Happy New Year, Geauxt.
Several years ago I went to Davis Island to check a friend's camp. The river was high and temps were in the 30's. There was a monstrous gator on the bank on Palmyra. probably as big as Simmons gator14 ft? This was in February I think. Not long after deer season anyway.

Damn, that's strange. It's been pretty cold for like 4 days. Hard to believe a gator would be that active. We've had them all year on Pecan Island. Had one take one of my ducks a oouple of weeks ago, but he just nibbled.

Uncle and cousin hunted it this morning. Said everything was flooded like crazy. Said they froze today, thought cold water made them slow down.

Everybody around here was thinking the same thing.
I've seen them in this hole for several years when it's cold but especially when it's raining or just after a rain.
I youst to take my dog there untill after a rain & it was gators everywhere.

That's scary. Did they get a look at how big it was? Twice I've had them sitting in my decoys this year.
