An 11 foot alligator nicknamed King Arthur was seen with a tomato cage stuck on his head while that alligator was resting at the Fripp Island Golf And Beach Resort in South Carolina on Monday March 25 when officials of the University of Georgia (UGA) Coastal Ecology Lab were able to find a way to rescue the alligator from dying by carefully to remove the tomato cage from his head. The officials at the golf course are asking the public to be careful where they place their material since animals can be harmful to them. The alligator was released to roam free after the officials from the university saved his life. Link is upi.com/5421711565112 via @upi

He wouldn't have been able to eat with that crate on his head.

It's tragic how so many animals die because of manmade stuff like netting on tennis courts to nets in the oceans. People need to be much more careful how they do things.

Animals are like kids and like to explore, and then they often get themselves into pickles. It was good for this alligator that he was freed, from his predicament.
