Re: Alligator Attacks Our Tractor
Sky, It was supposed to be funny, not a serious question.
Anyway...
It is really a mute issue considering the worldwide alligator and crocodile population is in decline. That and the recent discovery of proteins in the blood of alligators that fight infections that are hard to control with antibiotics. Alligators and Crocks seem to survive grievous wounds that heal while they are living in a veritable broth of pathogens. If these proteins prove difficult or expensive to synthesize then there will extreme pressure on the wild population to supply feedstocks for pharmaceuticals.
And to think I callously ordered two styles of alligator at a restaurant a while back. The spicy Cajun version is darned tasty.
