Gator Update (Philly Editon)

South Philly Row Home Strange Place for a Gator |
NBC Philadelphia
: "You meet lots of characters in South Philly but nothing quite like a seven-foot-long alligator named Kirt.

Animal control officers come across all sorts of situations but it's rare to find a 7-foot alligator living in a South Philly row home basement.

Animal officers removed the seven-footer from a home on the 1300-hundred block of Warnock Street Tuesday, according to the Pennsylvania SPCA.

Some neighbors knew about the gator living in the row home but nothing was done until someone tipped off the SPCA about the large reptile."

Hat tip to Jeff Segal.
