An alligator gar, and an alligator turtle, and an alligator alligator got caught in some chickenwire and now we have to ban fishing. How about chickens and cattle? Do we have to stop eating them too? I'm sorry but I was born carnivorous and I haven't seen any studies that indicate that vegetarians live longer than than the rest of us. Ever heard of the effect of fish oil on cholesterol? Did the Man say cast your net on the other side of the boat to snare seaweed? Did the Man pass out vegetable burgers on the mountain to the masses or was it fish and a few loaves of bread? Maybe a guy named bean has to eat only beans but this alligator convention is not gonna keep this carnivore from chowing down on an occasional rainbow trout. And if the turtle is so intelligent how did he get caught in that chicken wire?

I hate to find out that someone has killed turtles. They're more intelligent than what most people realize, and their biology could teach scientists how to give us biological immortality. The way to better health is not by eating turtles and other wild animals - Butch54. Is your heart doctor a witch doctor or a voodoo specialist? All fishing should be banned.

he should be stripped of all hunting and fishing privileges for the rest of his life..and then made to go clean up road kill every day for the next 20 years..I absolutely hate poachers

Mighty good eating went to waste there. God provided us with these fine dinning animals for our pleasurable eating. They should not be wasted. Eat more wild meat and drink fine wine. My heart doctor says it is doing wonders for me. 10 to 15 percent improvement in 7 years.

i am sick of people killing gods sin free animals, The only people full of sin is us humans, and he is prime example. life without parole, then he can face gods judgement when that time comes and im sure it will be harsh!!!!!

I'm tried of all the illegal hunting and fishing people do and try and get away with it. Send him to jail for 20 plus years and fine him $100,000. See if that doesn't stop people from doing that.

Gator, turtle soup is good, had it a coupe of times when I was Louisiana. Should have followed the rules... regardless. If it was on his own property and he was feeding his family, well I would take another view on this third hand info...

Chances are if he was fishing with illegal nets, he was never worried about getting a fishing or hunting license.

This person should be charges to the fullest extent. He should never be allowed to have a hunting or fishing license ever. If I found anything like this I would call Game & Fish.
