The stolen alligator has been living illegally in someone's backyard in Texas for two decades.
An eight-foot alligator has been returned to her home after Texas Game Wardens discovered her living illegally in a home south of Austin.
Texas Game Wardens investigating a 'hunting without landowner consent' call discovered the gator at a home in Caldwell County.in New Braunfels decades ago and took either an alligator egg or hatchling home and kept it as a pet for around 20 years. Wardens say the people who owned the home took good care of the gator, but they also made it clear no one should keep an alligator as a pet.
The homeowner received two Class C citations -- one for possession of an alligator egg and one for possession of an alligator without appropriate permits.
