This alligator was found between Centre and Leesburg , Alabama near a house! Game wardens were forced to shoot the alligator - guess he wouldn't cooperate... Anita and Charlie Rogers could hear the bellowing in the night. Their neighbors had been telling them that they had seen a mammoth alligator in the waterway that runs behind their house, but they dismissed the stories as exaggerations. 'I didn't believe it,' Charles Rogers said, but they realized the stories were, if anything, understated. Alabama Parks and Wildlife game wardens had to shoot the beast. Joe Goff, 6'5' tall, a game warden, walks past the 28-foot, 1-inch alligator (8.5 metres) he shot and killed in their back yard.
At first look at the bottom pic I thought it might be a photoshop job as the shadows of the other various objects in the scene seem to be every which way. But if it's not a fake... What a monster!
I checked it out the photos are real but of two different alligators. here is the truth. http://www.snopes.com/photos/animals/gatordeer.asp
