Ok...

Just what kinda gun do you think you need for that???

I don't even think my Barrett (dream gun) would do anything but hack something like that off...

There's a lot of boots in that hide though!!!

I have to say I'm curious what they shot it with.

BTW, anybody want alligator soup? :wink:

I would imagine that after getting a call about a dinosaur in the back yard the deputy brought the proper tool for the job.

I don't know about you guys, but I wouldn't even bother with shooting him. I'd just jump on his back like Steve Erwin, wrap my hands around his mouth and then roll around on the ground with him until he agreed to be submissive. Then I'd give him a cutesy pet name and walk him down the street like a big ole' puppy dog. :D

But then....I can also ride a black tornado and rope the wind. :lol:

Does anyone know WHERE you would shoot one that would be a lethal area - assuming you could get the penetration needed?

Apparently, you want to shoot for the brain. I understand this is difficult, because it's very small. :)

I think a shot between the eyes will take care of pretty much anything that breathes.

You're gonna stand in front of it???

And take a shot at it???

That, I would pay money to see muh man!!!

Me??? Oh you're too kind...

I'll stand as far away from it as I can and lob a grenade in its general direction...I'm ok with that...

Its either that or I'm getting my "phased plasma rifle, in the 40 watt range" out...

Again, thats just one big lizard to me...

You climb a tree and play Viet Cong sniper on it.
Only works with alligators.
Doesn't work with black bears or grizzlies.
Black bears climb, and grizzlies knock down the tree. :(
