From an email...........
After 5 years of living in Lake Roberta, our friend the alligator has passed away. Some surveyors noticed him floating close to the embankment early Wednesday morning and pulled him out of the water. The cause of his death is unknown.
He lived a peaceful life in our lake. Occasionally dining on ducks, he mostly ate the marine toads, keeping their population, over the last few years, to a more manageable size. I’m sure we can expect to see a large toad population in the Spring.
In case you were wondering, he grew to a healthy size of 6’ 8”.
