Photos: Two Big Alligators spotted and Killed. ‘We Chased Him For About Two Hours" , says the hunter.



Both set new state records for largest alligator to be killed in Mississippi, so clearly nobody should ever go to Mississippi again. This 4-metres, 328.2 kilos male alligator held the record for the heaviest alligator ever to be killed in Mississippi for about one hour. It took Beth Trammell and her team of six people an hour and a half to bring down the 328.2 kilos beast after it became hooked on their lines.

 Trammell told the Clarion-Ledger that when the alligator finally surfaced beside the boat, she screamed, “Oh, my gosh. It’s the Loch Ness monster.” After another two hours, and the assistance of a few extra hunters, the alligator was hoisted into their boat and taken back to shore to be weighed and measured, and a new, albeit short-lived, state record was set. The previous weight record was 316.4 kilos, according to the Mississippi Department of Wildlife,Fisheries, and Parks. The state’s alligator hunting season, sponsored by the department, ends on Sept. 9. Hunters must apply for permits and attend alligator hunting training courses if they are selected through the department’s lottery. While Trammell and her team were subduing their behemoth, another gator, weighing 329.8 kilos and measuring 4 metres had been killed by a group of hunters a few miles away.
