Found in Gary Liddell's backyard -- It's only a
small wonder that Gary (Wayne) and wife Karen Liddell are moving to
a new home in the Houston, Texas suburbs during May 2005. This
14-foot 'gator was caught and killed on April 16 in the Chocolate Bayou
which abounds on their (former) backyard in Alvin, Texas. No, Gary
and his family had not adopted "Snout" and been feeding him, and, no, the
Liddell's and their neighbors are not missing any children or pets.
"Snout" was more then twice as long as a good-sized man is tall and his
image relative to the officer is not a trick of perspective in this
photograph. Did parts of the 'gator make it into a law enforcement
grill back at the station? This is not known but 'gator is reputed
to be tasty - akin to chicken by reports.
