So yes, I got ****ed off when the losers in life whining crybabies couldn't keep their mouths shut and got something removed that I used to quietly enjoy watching when I had to go to Brownwood.

It'd only be quietly enjoyable until that gator ran out of vittles in his VERY limited pond, which is now surrounded by people - who walk around with small animals and grandchildren, or drive in open golf carts and sometimes stop on the road. A creature that enormous can't subsist on the very limited amount of -natural- food, in a heavily built-up area. These are not tamed animals, and they are not contained safely away from people.
This lizard is in a better place now, being looked after, given food and any medical attention it might need as it ages in life, a HUGE territory with lots of other alligators it can hang out with, AND in a place where anyone can enjoy the opportunity of watching it - and its companions, in a more natural setting than a man-made senior housing development with a few trees and retention ponds and pristine manicured lawns.
