An alligator missing the top of its snout and jaw has been captured in Florida and is recovering at Gatorland, an alligator zoo in Orlando.
As soon as it came scurrying out of the brush, Flynn knew he had the right animal. It was missing the entire top of its snout.
in late August in Sanford, Fla. As a photo of its injury circulated, residents speculated about the ghastly incident that had stripped half its snout and fretted over the gator’s health.The hobbled reptile was thin and malnourished when Flynn and his son Chase, called in by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, finally caught it weeks later, he said. Now, the alligator has a new home at Gatorland, an Orlando alligator zoo, where it is recovering under the center’s care.
Flynn, who speculated that a boat propeller could be to blame, said he had caught alligators with injured upper jaws before, but never one with an injury as severe as the one afflicting the viral star he caught on Thursday.He marveled at the gator’s resilience. Its wound was healed, suggesting that the injury happened months ago. It lost its nasal glands with its upper snout and was breathing through an exposed nasal cavity.
