Gator Update (Doggin' It Edition)

Alligator eats dog in middle of popular Tampa park - Tampa Bays Local News: "Tampa, Florida - A Bay area pet owner is in shock after her dog was eaten by an alligator in the middle of one of Tampa’s most popular parks. The attack happened near a walking trail at Al Lopez Park just north of Raymond James Stadium.

Sarah Frey says she and her Cairn Terrier were walking on a trail in the park around 9:30 a.m. Monday when she allowed her dog off its leash.

“I think he was hot, and he saw the water, and he took a big leap towards the water,” says Frey.

Suddenly others in the park started to scream, but before Sarah could get to the edge of the lake everything was over."

Okay, gators are rough on dogs, but you never hear the reports about the dogs that eat alligators. There is a real tragedy. Joe
