Woman Punches Alligator To Save Her Dog
A Florida woman who was taking her dog for a walk ended up getting attacked by an alligator. The gator chomped down on 4-month-old shih tzu Dax’s collar and Danie Wright ended up punching it to save the dog.
“I just punched him, punched and punched,” she told WTSP-TV. “I punched him in the eye enough that he kind of let go, he unclamped a little, and I pulled off, but his teeth dragged down my arm.”
She was able to flip the alligator onto its back, allowing her and Dax to flee inside the house. Then she got video of the gator lurking behind her home after the attack. Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission showed up to remove the gator from her yard.
