PACK OF DOGS KILL GATOR IN FLORIDA
At times nature can be cruel, but there is also a raw beauty, and even a certain justice manifested within that cruelty.
The alligator, one of the oldest and ultimate predators, normally considered the "apex predator" in its natural ecosystem, can still fall victim to implemented 'team work' strategy, made possible due to the tight knit social structure and "survival of the fittest pack mentality", bred into the canines over the last several hundreds of years by natural selection.
See the attached remarkable photograph courtesy of Nature Magazine.
Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the gator preventing it from breathing, while the remainder of the pack prevents the beast from rolling.
Be sure you can handle guts and gore

May Dog!
Brandy Sponsored: May 7, 2006 |
I am a ten-year-old husky/springer spaniel mix. My guardian passed away, so I am looking for someone with whom to share companionship and affection.
In celebration of "Older Americans Month," WHS wants to unite mature adults with equally experienced companion animals. WHS will be having special events the entire month of May to promote senior animals like me.
Any person over 60 who adopts any animal over 7 years old can enjoy special promotions and reduced adoption fees. Click here for details.
Senior animals are truly special. We don't have the training demands that younger animals may have, we bond quickly and will return your love tenfold. The health and emotional benefits of living with an animal are well-documented and extend beyond the companionship we offer. I can lower your blood pressure, help you recover from surgery faster and even renew your zest for life!
