temperary home

my brother in law has a six foot american alligator that he needs to find a temperary home for. he is looking for a pet shop that would use him as a display or a private home that would take good care of him. the gator is in cleveland ohio. he had him at a private fram in a near by city and they were feeding him live baby turkeys when he told them not to, he went to take him back and the tank was full of black water and bird bones... i told him about this site and he told me to post something and see what happens. if anyone can help or knows anyone that can help please let me know through this thread or feel free to e-mail me. thanks in advance. Joe

I've seen rescue org's on Kingsnake... There are also people here that deal in rescue/placement.... I'm sure someone here can help... best O' Luck!

Too bad they are native and protected here.........gotta nice pond it could go to.

Best of luck finding a place for it, sounds like it needs it!

yeah thanks, i told him that it's not going to be easy to place it, most people are like yeah i'll take it then they see it and their wifes are like no way were taking it...lol

I'm guessing he doesnt want to ship it to anyone...I'm sure some organiztion would take him in for some time.

no he wants it local so he can get it when he's ready. he's been trying to sell his house and it's not a big selling point for thr buyer to walk in on that.

Yeah I could see how some people might not like the 6 foot guard gator lol.

I was born and raised around them here in FL, so if he was local...I'd be in the car coming to get it.
Let us know how he does, I hope the gator gets a nice clean home this go around.

yeah it could be a deal breaker...lol thanks i'll keep you posted.
