HAUPPAUGE, N.Y. — Gators don’t make good pets. That’s from a guy who knows.
Officials of New York’s Suffolk County SPCA say they’ve found a new home for Rocky, a 6-foot alligator.
The SPCA’s Roy Gross says the owner decided Rocky was too big to handle.
Newsday reports the owner says gators are also too dangerous to keep as pets.
A herpetologist from the Rainforest Reptile Sanctuary in Massachusetts is taking Rocky.
