A one-handed trapper in Florida roped and wrestled a 6-foot alligator out of a retention pond.


IMAGES: Gator Captured

The wildlife official was called to remove the gator Monday near a neighborhood in Palm City near West Palm Beach.

The trapper was able to drag the reptile to the edge of the pond before jumping on it.

The alligator was seen on video trying to spin away but the man was able to tape its jaws shut.

It was then placed into a pickup and removed from the area.

Local 6 reported that the gator trapper did not lose his hand to another gator.
