Alligators Drifted to Inagua and Andros Traditions
In a Nassau Guardian inquiry, locals confirm a drifting eight foot alligator shot on Inagua shore, likely carried from San Domingo by logs. Catesby’s Andros alligators are deemed credible, possibly drifted from northwest Cuba via the gulf stream. Also notes Bahama island superstitions of “little people” and “Yunyhoos” in pine woods, linked to origins of enslaved populations and West African folklore.
