It's mating season!!!! Down here in Houston the warnings are all out about the american alligators moving out of the bayous looking for mates. Tehy killed a 10" one today that was soaking up heat from a freeway feeder road. I guess they aren't on the endangered list anymore since it was a professional hunter/owner of a alligator farm that sells the flesh, who got the contract.

sigh... I'm all for progress but the poor gators are getting squeezed out and aren't really to blame for the stupid humans who get too close or let their little doggies out to investigate.
