Dog Pack Kills Alligator

Froggie wants to learn how to post things like this but until she does, I will do this for her. It is a good one.


Dog Pack Kills Alligator In Florida

At times nature can be cruel, but there is also a raw beauty, and even a certain justice manifested within that cruelty.


The alligator, one of the oldest and ultimate predators, normally
considered the apex predator in its natural eco-system, can still fall
victim to implemented team work strategy, made possible by the tight knit social structure and survival of the fittest pack mentality bred into canines over the last thousands of years by natural selection.

See the remarkable photograph attached, courtesy of Nature Magazine.
Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the gator preventing it
from breathing, while the remainder of the pack prevents the beast from rolling.

Beware! This is not for the squeamish!
