THE GEORGIA FLYOVER –
Bibb County received visits from two alligators this week, including a six-footer found in a suburban yard Friday and a massive 12-footer found at an industrial park Saturday.
Both animals were captured by animal enforcement officer Rebecca Galeazzo, who needed backup for the larger gator after it “put up a fight.” They were returned to the wild.
Wildlife officials say territorial disputes and the spring mating season can drive alligators into unfamiliar territory.
