Before you say it this picture wasn’t photoshopped, the
monster alligator dangling off the end of this tractor really
was that big.
The huge alligator, which weighed some 800lb and
measured more than 15 feet, was captured by two hunters
on a Florida farm after it killed its cattle.
It was shot by farm owner Lee Lightsey after being spotted hiding in a cattle pond at Outwest
Farms but was so big the only way to remove
it was with a tractor.
Hunting guide Blake Godwin, who spotted the creature told Fox 13 they believed it was
attacking livestock as they came to drink.
‘It is hard to believe that something this big exists in the wild,’ he added. ‘Hunting is a way of life
for us and we are very proud of it’
Blake, who has been guiding hunts for alligators, wild boar, and turkey for 18 years, said it was
the largest alligator they had taken.
It is thought it could be up to 100-years-old.
The pair now plan to donate the creature’s meat to charity and will have it taxidermied for
display at hunting shows.
