"750-Pound Alligator Named Albert Seized from New York Home Sparks Community Support"

Authorities seized an 11-foot, 750-pound alligator named Albert from a New York home after discovering that the owner had allowed public contact with the animal in an in-ground swimming pool. The owner's license to own the alligator had expired, and the reptile is now being cared for by a licensed caretaker due to health problems. Owning dangerous animals like alligators is illegal in New York without a proper license, and potential charges may be determined after further analysis of evidence seized during the seizure.
