I never knew Texas has Alligators. Ya learn something new every day. :smokin:

We have alligators in far East Texas,along the Lousiana border.I live in central Texas around Austin.Hope to be up and running in about a month.

Yeah, but in central TX, you do have rattlesnakes. (You'd have a world record if you hit one that gave you a bump with the truck.) Here in FL, we do have much larger snakes. Burmese Pythons will grow to 30', and if you ran over one, you'd know it. Those long bodies full of muscles can do some pretty serious damage to the bottom of a truck. Worse than hitting a dog with a brand new car.

But, I seem to remember going by a billboard near Austin that said they had a 12' alligator on display... LIVE. I'd be willing to bet there are a couple around there, but you just don't have the swamp to keep them happy in the wild.

I am absolutely petrified of snakes. I hate them all.

You probably wouldn't like the rattlesnake roundup they have around Swee****er, TX.

Been there,done that.Rattlesnake tastes like chicken.Last time I was in Swee****er I picked up sheetrock and that wasn't a real good experience either.Guess I could set up with my Mobile Oil trailer there and change oil during the round up.Probably not.
