Animal was slaughtered by authorities Reproduction/Fox13
Florida police have recovered the body of a 41yearold woman attached to the jaws of a 4meter alligator, US broadcaster CBS reported. The case occurred on Friday (22) in the city of Pinellas.
According to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office, officers were called to an incident in a part of the Largo area in Tampa Bay after the body of the victim, later identified as Sabrina Peckham, was discovered in a canal.
JaMarcus Bullard, Sabrina’s neighbor, told CBS News affiliate WTSP that he discovered the victim in an alligator’s mouth and called emergency services.
“He [o animal] “It came out of the water with its body like it was just attached to it and swam back to the bottom of the canal to the other side,” Bullard said. “I just couldn’t believe it was real,” he added.
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officials and officials also took action and killed the alligator in the most brutal manner possible, the Pinella Sheriff’s Office said. A diving team then recovered Peckham’s remains from the canal.
No further details were released about the circumstances leading to the discovery. The Pinellas County coroner is still working to determine the manner and cause of Sabrina’s death, and the investigation into the case is ongoing, authorities said.
Monstrous: The world’s largest captive crocodile is 120 years old
Zookeepers in an Australian park celebrated a unique birthday: the 120th birthday of Cassius, the world’s largest living crocodile in captivity! It is important to note that this is an estimated age of the animal based on the rings around the teeth and bones
Cassius was captured in the Finniss River in 1984 after being accused of eating livestock belonging to ranchers in northern Australia. He has been the most distinguished guest at Marineland Crocodile Park since 1987
“He was 16ft 10in tall [5,13 m] with at least another 6 inches of tail and part of the snout missing,” Graeme Webb, one of the scientists who captured Cassius, recalled in a recent interview with ABC AustraliaREAD MORE: Fisherman catches monstrous fish after 43 minutes of fierce battle: ‘I panicked’
In captivity it grew a little further and is now 5.5 m long, making it the largest living crocodile
“He still has a lot of spark in him. In general, large, old reptiles tend to be fairly docile and disinterested. Cassius is always willing to interact,” said Toody Scott. The name Cassius is an homage to Cassius Clay, the first name of boxer Muhammad Ali.

Lolong was no less than 6.17 m tall and was caught in a province in the Philippines in 2011
It took three weeks to find him and 100 people to bring him ashore
The manhunt began when Lolong was suspected of killing a farmer and a 12yearold girlDON’T MISS: Mom finds very poisonous snake hidden in son’s shoe. Can you find it?

In addition, people donated to keep the giant animal in captivity.
But unlike Gustav, prison didn’t do Lolong any good!
In February 2013, he was found dead in his parking area. The autopsy revealed that Lolong died of pneumonia and cardiac arrest, aggravated by a fungal infection and stress
His remains were preserved and prepared. Lolong is currently on display at the Natural History Museum in Manila, the capital of the Philippines.CONTINUE HERE: Corvo paints popular paintings in stores and has been compared to a famous abstract artist
