Unconfirmed Reports Of Record Alligator Kill In Orangeburg

When we first moved to our current SC property near to the Savannah river, I had contacted DNR in Columbia to ask what the rules were about alligators. What was relayed to me was the history of why and how they were on the protected list. It revolves around the Florida cayman which were endangered and protected. Being there was so much confusion for hunters/trappers between the two, the alligators were added. It was stated to me that the alligator has never been endangered or is it in any near a threat of becoming so, have a good day. Wink wink.
The current quote of removing an alligator was $500 plus $125 for each foot over 4 feet. Private property has its costs.
