An eight-foot-long,127-pound alligator was taken from a homemade enclosure in North Philadelphia after it was left unwanted when a married couple split up.
Yali said her husband was sad to see the alligator removed, but the couple have recently split and she decided it needed to go.
"My husband had him since 2011. We've had him all these years. He's been in the basement, but now we've separated and I want him out of here," she said. According to officials at ACCTPhilly, it's the fourth large reptile they have had to rescue in a month. A caiman, found in FDR Park in early March,In Pennsylvania, it's illegal to keep a dangerous animal like Big Mack, but, Barnett said that they don't plan to bring any charges against the couple in this case, because they don't want to dissuade anyone in a similar situation from coming forward.
"These people did the right thing. They had this animal. They called us. They asked for help. They coordinated with us. And, that's what we want people to do," said Barnett.
