Florida Park Rescues Alligator, Names Him After His Wounds
- Gatorland in Orlando took in a 9-foot, 500-pound alligator named Bungee, who was found near Gainesville having suffered an injury caused by a bungee cord that had become lodged in his upper jaw.
- Rescuers believe someone illegally tried to capture Bungee by wrapping a bungee cord around his mouth, which broke and sliced into his jaw.
- Captain Ron Sanderson, an experienced trapper, captured Bungee in about an hour, removed the cord, and delivered him to Gatorland for care.
- Gatorland veterinarian Dr. Bogan examined Bungee, who received medical care and was declared perfectly healthy by employee Brandon Fisher, who said, "He's perfectly healthy, perfectly fine."
- Bungee joined more than 100 rescued alligators at Gatorland, where experts expect him to settle comfortably and live out his days in their 10-acre marsh habitat.
