Alligators in your basement are even worse. An eight-foot alligator has been removed from the basement of a home in Buffalo, New York.
A former Buffalo couple who operate a reptile sanctuary in Tampa removed the eight-foot-long gator from the Buffalo home yesterday. The person who owned the 170-pound reptile had contacted the state Department of Environmental Conservation and said he couldn't care for the gator any longer.
A DEC officer checked out the gator and contacted Laura and John Paner, who run the Croc Encounters Reptile Sanctuary.
It's illegal to keep an alligator in New York state, but officials say the man who raised the gator won't face any charges because he turned himself in.
The man was obviously an agent for the Animal Uprising™. He also had a bunch of lizards and snakes around his home. Our informants tell us that the alligator has been scouting the Queen City and is heading back to headquarters in Florida to brief the invasion force that is forming up down there. It is believed that their target is the Anchor Bar where they plan to replace the legendary Buffalo wings that were invented there with something more to their taste. Human arms.
