May Not Be Any Alligators in the New York Sewers But A Different Story in Chicago

A bit of fluff from The Chicago Tribune - Alligator in Chicago:

"Terrible things have emerged over the years from Bubbly Creek, a spot in the Chicago River that was once a churning sewer for the city's slaughterhouses.

But until Friday, nobody had seen what Bill Cox and his co-workers saw—something with a devilish underbite, sinister eyes and a cold-blooded appetite.

An honest-to-goodness alligator in the Chicago River."

Seriously, why have something like this in the house and then just dump it? One word: idiot.
