An 800lb alligator is likely to have been around 70 years old. Sad way to go after so long. Here lies Allie the alligator, shot dead for existing, by a 5 year old redneck kid.

I'm sure the gator wouldn't have hesitated in gobbling up the kid....

I bet it didn't, I bet the Dad's friend got a shot off with the .45.

The idea of bird shot piercing, the thick skin AND skull of an 800lb alligator doesn't sit right with me.

Any of you hunting experts wanna chip in on that one?
All has to do with distance. If he was close, i'll buy it.

I’ll admit that if there was an 800 pound alligator living in the pound on my place, I’d be looking to shoot it too. I don’t think the kid can be faulted for that.
