Subject: Now that's a big gator !

This was taken by a KTBS helicopter flying over Lake George ! (For those of you who are not local, this is Lake George in Ocala FL.) That has to be a HUGE gator to have a whole deer in its mouth! Are you ready to go skiing on Lake George? ! If you ski at the west end of the lake -- try not to fall. Keep scrolling - there are 2 photos

This is actually kinda old. Heres the link to the Snopes report on it. I can't remember what exactly was said about it and I can't read the site because I'm at work.

I've heard that its actually not really that BIG. Having the deer in its mouth might make it look big but it doesn't look much longer than the deer except for the tail.

Besides the fact that Florida deer are much smaller when compared to the rest of the country.

Edit: I read in the Snopes article that it's not from FL so nevermind.
