Normally on this site I try to share good news stories about alligators as well as other animals and human beings with happy endings.
In the case an alligator that is on the loose in Middlesex New Jersey that has been seen in the Victor Crowell Park swimming in a lake since last Wednesday has yet to be captured by the officials of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection Conservation Police.
The officials of the NJDEOCP are closing the area of Lake Creighton and Ambrose Park for a period of 72 hours until the four foot alligator is taken care of humanely.

I hope they are able to re-home the alligator without anyone being harmed.
