Florida Fish and Wildlife officers in Sarasota, Fla., are investigating the discovery of a popular alligator swimming with a large knife stuck in its head, according to Local 6 News.
The alligator, nicknamed Elvis by local residents, was apparently attacked this week in the pond he lives in. The alligator was spotted by residents swimming with the blade in its head. Residents are angered by the attack, since Elvis has never been a problem and does not bother the ducks living in the pond.
Wildlife officials are trying to determine if the alligator can be saved.If the attacker is caught, the person faces fines and prison time, according to the report.Watch Local 6 News for more on this story.
