I must not be understanding this correctly. A real life alligator? Why are you dropping it in a box?

The processor has drop boxes where you can store the gator until the come out and pick them up to be taken in for processing. They butcher the gator, and package the meat, and salt the hide. I need the hide prepped properly so I can sell it. |

I drove by the address it's listed at, and found a steel building. I'm assuming that is what it is, but I'm not positive.

But really only east Texas has a sizable population of the things. I think there may be a permit for them though. I know they've been found pretty damn far up the Brazos and Colorado rivers though. |

And it makes me laugh because I pick up several drop boxes every night and the thought of opening one and a folded up dead gator in there just tickles me to death!!

There's similar things here in pa for deer, but usually on the processors premises. One would kill a deer, gut it, then take it to the processors, where you would fill out an order form, then just toss it in a separate outdoor freezer, or if cold enough, a shed or garage of sorts. I'd imagine that a big enough outfit, without much local competition, would benefit from off site drop boxes.

Soo.. At this point we still don't have pictures of gator drop boxes, descriptions of them or even anyone who knows what they are??
That is very unlike arfcom. Call the processor and get us more info! Then send me some gator meat. I've never eaten one and it sounds delicious. |

Florida Man arrested after allegedly stuffing dead alligators into a local pharmacy's mail slot. The man claimed he thought they were an "alligator drop box." Police report the man tested positive for bath salts, and was naked and covered in what is described as "reptile semen" at the time of the arrest.

Yes to hunting. There is a season and protocol, I plan to sign my oldest girl up for a drawn hunt. I'm SE of Houston and we have tons of them. Biguns, too. Had a 4'er in the ditch in my yard a few years ago.

I drove by last night, but gator season doesn't start for a few more days still, so I'm not sure what I saw was it.

Have you considered processing it yourself? I only found one processor up here in Jax when researching for the season which leads me to think it’s not too hard to DIY.
