We had a gator at the Weapons Station in Goose Creek SC. His name was Charlie. He lived in a small fenced area. He lived there only because he chose too, as he was well fed with roadkill from the Weapons Station. He was about 18’ long. Took a group of Brit dignitaries to see him as we left the area for the airport. They were all gathered near the fence only a meter or so away. I stayed back about 4 or 5 meters. They asked why, so I told them. Explained he wasn’t chained or held in that little chain link fenced area by anything but his good will. They took off like a shot!

Henry is amazing. I have one to three alligators on my property in Florida and I love to watch them grow. There’s usually a half dozen babies and out of them maybe one lives to be an adult. But they are from a foot long to 6 or 7 feet. They’d be a snack for Henry. 🐊

What do the babies die from. Is it the adults or birds or accidents? That's really special that you can watch those life cycles play out on your property.

For those curious, crocs becoming maneaters can be as simple as living near places with sickness outbreaks, really bad flooding disturbing cemeteries, or even major building projects. They used to result in a lot of dead bodies that werent easy to get rid of and the crocs may just help themselves passively.

If Big Daddy is still alive, he must be getting on as he was said to be 110 in a newspaper article dated 2015. Weights for him range from 800 kg to 1300 kg. The last I heard he was living in a Croc Farm in Mombassa, Kenya. I saw him back in 1992 when they said he was a minimum of 75 years old. It would be great if anyone could confirm for certain if he's still alive and what age and weight he is now!
