Fuckin lizards. Throw that in the bayou and let the turtles have it.

Not that you need any other input but ...
I'd have done the same. Our two boxers are our kids ... I think I would have looked for more in the area and dispatched them for good measure as well. I might even have had to go on a week long gator spree. Vermin. |
|
He'll go to good cause don't worry, maybe some dogfood for our others
|
|
I would do the same, and once a week I would "patrol" the canal.
|
|
I'm usually out there everday for target practice, it's the one good thing about having a 60acre backyard.
|

Do you have any tannerite? I'd like to see what happens to an alligator body if you put a can of Tannerite under his neck and blow it up. Post pics when you're done, mkay?
ETA: I would put a Jihad on ALL aligators from this point forward if I were you. |

Damn dinosaurs. I think God just plain missed them 65,000,000 years ago. I'd have done the same thing. I live in an area where gators tend to show up rather unexpectedly since they have been protected. Used to not see any, now there as common as turtles on a log. A friend of mine lives on a larger canal, his house is elevated about 15 ft and has a nice balcony overlooking the canal. His alligator repellent is a Remington 700 in 30/06. Needless to say he doesn't have a problem with gators moving into his neighborhood and staying. He has given a terminal headache to some rather large beasties.

Eat the tail, sell the hide, buy a membership
One shot didn't kill him? Or were the other shots just for your satisfaction? |
|
He went under as I was wolking over, thats when the magazine dump began |
|
|
Some things just don't die with one shot.
Cats Reptiles Cats Raccoons Cats Possoms Cats |

Good shot good kill. I dont condone killing animals for no reason but I would of done the same thing.
|
|
Wait, I shoot a friggun SNAKE and I'm lynched by the ARFCOM POSSE?!
This guy shoots an alligator and no one blinks an eye?! That said, I would have shot it too. Sorry to hear about your dog Gator taters Gator with lemon and wine sauce |
|
Sorry about your dog though. |
|
|
I can vouch for the cat thing. At my old property I had to routinely rid my area of feral cats. There's something to be said about the resolve of such a hardy animal, an animal that refuses to stop after .45 Hydra Shoks and .308 Boat-tail Sierras. With these beasts, head shots is pretty much the only way you're going to be certain of the kill, and even then, I have been fooled. |

|
Sorry about 'Lady'. Good lil' pup!
AdrianUSP9...excellent post! Not only did you supply a recipe...but, TWO! And, again, I can give you my testimony that, "Cats do NOT die with just 1 shot." |
|
Haven't seen an answer to that yet. |
|
|
[sarcasm]Yep, .223 is underpowered for sure.[/sarcasm]
Great job. Sorry about your loss. |
|
you done good. 4 feet long is enough to kill a kid too. |
||
|
Good for you.
RIP Lady. Last time I talked to one of my best friends who just happens to work for LA Wildlife and Fisheries, the topic of gators and other dangerous animals came up. His statement to me, "It came after you, shoot it." Opossums, raccoons, watermocasins, gators, coyotes, etc. don't stand a chance around my house. Redbaron |
|
Did the snake kill anything? |
|
|
Nice backyard. Nice tractor. Nice shot. Too bad about your pup, that sucks. |
|
Sorry bout the pup, I would have put a mag of 308 in it personally, gators eat big things, unlike snakes, and they look at dogs as yummy snacks, kids are about the same, not even in the same league as a harmless snake. Again, sorry bout your Muns dog. RIP.
|
|
That four footer is not the one that got your dog!!!! Keep your eye out for a bigger one!
But he will do for now!!!! Bob |

|
Good shooting. I would have been so pissed 3 or 4 mags would have been dumped before I stopped. I feel your pain.
|
|
No, but it made a furtive movement |
||
|
I would be out there right now with my spotlight making sure mom isn't living in the canal too.
sorry about your pup... |
|
Damn .... you unloaded into it ass... err... head. |

|
Do you work as a pimp in your spare time |
|
|
Sorry bout the puppy, my pup must be her twin sister.
Illegal? Who the F*ck cares! ABSOFREAKINLUTLEY JUSTIFIED. Sell tickets to your gator safari and call all yer buddies out for the fun! |
|
Our dogs were/are our defenders here, anytime anything people, animals enter the yard/cow pasture they let us know.
Just the other night when i came home Lady and her daughter Missy were barking a opossum into submission. Even before I had a chance to pop him Lady tried to rip his troaat out, I had to yank her back. She will be missed |
|
Should have brought more guns to test their effects on the gator. See what works and what sucks.
What if he used a M82A1 ? Ok, anyone know where one can legally hunt them? |
|
Snake scary, alligator killed dog.. |
|||
|
OK, I said it before, and I'll say it again... Where's Ol_Painless around when we need him? Box O' Alligator! |
|
|
My State Arms is a little cumbersome to carry around for gator huntin
|
|
Sorry to hear about your dog.
I would have lobbed some tannerite at that fucker and waited for him to swallow. Seriously though, if they're messing with your animals, I have no problems with killing them. |
|
get another dog, stake it out for bait(bhind a fence for protection) and kill everything that comes after it. Make sure you got the bastard and all it's family.
|
|
Man that sucks
Makes me wonder though? Alligator vs. pitbull? Or maybe 5 pits? Post the vid |
|
My mom said while she was cutting the grass near the tree line in the back(this is where the house is being built) she saw a large coyote.
One more thing to worry about, have to get the Sendero 300winmag for him |

What effect does placing half of your muzzle brake in the water have on a nearby alligator?
What effect does bump firing like that have on your muzzle brake? |
