Everyone remembers their first. Being originally from the northeast, this deputy handled his first gator call like a pro. Supplied with a leash, tape, patience, and some helpful citizens he had everything he needed to get this angry gator to safer waters. No matter the size, gators can be dangerous. If you find one in a situation where it could hurt others or itself, please call for help. If it is an active emergency, there's an immediate threat to life, call 911.
