It emerged they were hunting for a huge alligator that had been branded a"nuisance" for chasing a person in a kayak and did not appear to fear human contact. Amerson said that he was able to enlist his friend Trey Durant, who is licensed by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources to trap the animals. According to

Durant uploaded a photo of the gator to his Facebook page yesterday, saying it was 10 feet and 6 inches long."I'm glad I could help you, that's a sure enough dinosaur," Amerson later commented under the snap.
