Dog Pack Attacks Gator In Louisiana. At times nature can be cruel, but there is also a raw beauty, and even a certain justice manifested within that cruelty.
The alligator, one of the oldest and ultimate predators, normally considered the 'apex predator', can still fall victim to implemented 'team work' strategy, made possible due to the tight knit social structure and 'survival of the pack mentality' bred into the canines. See the remarkable photograph courtesy of Nature Magazine. Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the gator preventing it from breathing, while another dog has a hold on the tail to keep it from thrashing. The third dog attacks the soft underbelly of the gator. Not for the squeamish... > > > > > > > > > > > >

Leave it to you to pull one like this. I thought the same thing as Mike the more I read of it, what's he posting it here for. Guess you got us!! That is a brutal looking group though, you'd better be careful.
