Reggie, the one and only California gator, is back in the news with the charging of the two men who released him into a lake last summer:
"The victim here is actually all of us. The neighborhood, the city, the children who want to play in this park. That's what we're trying to protect today by filing these charges," said Los Angeles City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo.
I'm on pins and needles waiting for spring, when Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter himself, will come from Australia to stalk the sneaky saurian, who is said to be "hibernating" right now.
Los Angelinos, take your Paxil and just hang on 'til then.

Reggie and imagined victim.

I think they might want to worry more about those four piranhas they found, and about the many others they haven't (yet).
Reggie deserves Steve's rescue...L.A. is certainly no place for a gator. I just hope he hasn't yet caught some terrible disease/ailment from sitting around in that horrid L.A. 'lake'. I've seen it and believe me, it's horrid.
