Bystanders Save a Park Employee in the Grips of a Gator

Posted: August 18, 2021 at 9:23 am

Two guys visiting Utah’s Scales and Tails reptile and bird center with their kids, RESCUED a female handler who was attacked by an alligator last Saturday.  After it grabbed her hand, one of the guys jumped on the gator’s back until she could break free.  The second guy pulled her to safety.  It was after the gator calmed down that the first guy was able to run away.

(She starts by telling the visitors that the gator “isn’t supposed to be on the platform until [she] asks him to.”  The children were whisked away from the viewing area.
