TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — A man who trapped and killed an alligator so big it pulled his boat around a lake has snared what authorities say is Florida’s longest gator on record, exceeding 14 feet.
Wildlife officials say the gator — caught by Robert Ammerman, a nurse who traps gators as a hobby — weighed 654 pounds and measured 14 feet, 3 1/2 inches.
It was caught Nov. 1, the last day of Florida’s alligator harvest, in Lake Washington near Melbourne. The Associated Press
