Subject: Dog Pack Attacks Gator in Florida



The alligator, one of the oldest and ultimate predators, normally considered the "apex predator", can still fall victim to implemented 'team work' strategy, made possible due to the tight knit social structure and "survival of the pack mentality" bred into the canines.

See the remarkable photograph below courtesy of Nature Magazine. Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the gator preventing it from breathing, while another dog has a hold on the tail to keep it from thrashing. The third dog attacks the soft underbelly of the gator.









Not for the
squeamish!

/bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/blush.gif Before I saw the photo, I was getting just a tad torqued... was sure it was not going to be a pretty sight.

How cute is that.

Thanks for the smile.
 
I witnessed a similar attack on one of my bedroom shoes a few years ago. I still have nightmares!
