8-Foot Alligator Removed From Basement BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) -- An alligator raised in the basement of a house in Buffalo is headed to a new home in a more gator-friendly place, Florida. 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 who owned the gator built an indoor pond in his basement. He also owns more than 20 lizards and large snakes. © 2007 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. |
