But
there are plenty of them at the Birding and Nature Center on South Padre
Island. They’re a rescue center for alligators that cause trouble with
people. The problem lies mostly with the people, not the gators. If
a gator gets fed, it learns from that experience and becomes a “nuisance” and
has to be removed. Or maybe it shows up on a dock or in a swimming pool.
There
are small ones in tanks.
To
larger ones in ponds.
All
the way up to Big Padre.
Twelve
feet of gator!
