Woman loses arm in alligator attack

 
ENGLEWOOD, Florida (AP) -- A 70-year-old woman was in fair condition Monday after an alligator ripped off part of her arm as she trimmed brush outside her condo, officials said.

The 8-foot 3-inch alligator latched on to Helena Couto's arm just below the elbow Sunday and tried to drag her into a nearby pond, said Gary Morse, a spokesman for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.

I guess she is blessed that the gator didn't get all of her.

It just goes to prove the wisdom of that age-old proverb, "Don't mess with alligators."

Words to live by.

I came up with a theory while visiting Florida on vacation. Aligators survive so well in developed communities and condo complexes due to the never ending supply of "lost" poodles of retirees.
