Alligators in Texas Rise From Camin Winded Tale

A New York Journal note from June reports a deadly alligator attack on Paul R Naegele's family at Espantos Lake in Dimmit County. As the couple camped with two children, a large alligator killed their four year old daughter while his wife tried to defend the child and herself. The elder animal snapped at Naegele, who fought back with an axe, but both parents were left wounded as the reptiles disappeared into the lake. Local elders note a winter torpor break and heightened hunger among the alligators. The tale portrays alligators as cowardly yet deadly when undisturbed.

Sunday Short Swaps and Cranky Editorial Snips
