@gatorchris1: Trapjaw the rescue alligator! Trapjaw was found with a metal snare embedded into his top jaw, likely from a failed poaching attempt. If left on it would likely impede his ability to hunt for food, and cut deeper into the jaw as he grows. Once removed he is doing great and will likely not even show he marks as he grows into an adult. Reminder that it is illegal to feed/harass/interact with alligators in Florida without a permit. ~~~Our rescue gators are wild caught nuisance gators that would’ve otherwise been destroyed. The state of Florida destroys 8,000 “nuisance” gators annually, but we don’t have a nuisance gators problem but rather a nuisance HUMAN problem. 1k people a day move to FL, unsustainably developing the land, and a lot of ignorant people making a nuisance out of themselves. NEVER feed a wild gator, never have kids or pets near the water, and never swim in gator habitat! And of course, never attempt anything you see in my videos! Remember guys, we support our sanctuary through social media, so if you’d like to help the animals (for free), please like, leave a positive comment, and share!! We greatly appreciate it and so do the animals! If you would like to donate to the care of the sanctuary animals, we greatly appreciate any support!! You can make a tax deductible donations directly through our website bellowingacres.org @bellowingacres #Animal #Gator #Alligator #scicomm CG
