Article said dog tags. I thought the damned thing had ate 5 soldiers.

Saw the picture and thought "Really? Well I guess it is almost 500 lbs."

Then I read the article lol. Imagine some old man getting closure about poor ole Roofus all those years ago. Man, I don't know if that would be the closure I'd fucking want lol.

They taste better than chicken.

Tastes like chicken but with the consistency of a nice beef filet. Gator loin, pan fried with cajun spice, freaking great. Whenever I'm in the south I make sure to eat some big nasty lizard.

I have eaten it and It tastes like rattlesnake. I hunt rattlesnake but have no Gators around me. My wife would Move if we did.

Never had rattlesnake, I would if I saw it on a menu though. I'll try most proteins once, never camel again though, they taste like they smell. Also rattlers strike me (no pun intended) as being at least as dangerous as the gators if not worse.
