This was the second of 2 alligators taken in the first Comstock Alligator Trap in Florida this past year. At 4 1/2 feet long the 5 long trap dwarfs the gator. A trap of this size, 12x24x60 inches will easily handle a 6 foot gator and probably will take gators 7 or 8 feet long.
The first gator taken in this trap was a shade over 5 feet long.
