Earlier, a large-sized alligator was rescued after spending several days trapped in a storm drain in a Florida neighbourhood.

Moreover, Artefacts dated 6,000-years-old were found from inside an alligator’s stomach after it was captured by a hunter.

The report mentioned that a hunter named John Hamilton had caught the huge 13ft beast that had an astounding weight of 750lb. He then took it to Shane Smith who processed the sea creature with him.

The alligator, captured in Mississippi, was dissected and the hunter was astounded to see an arrowhead along with a plummet.
