Woah dude. They aren't indestructible. They shoot them there to kill the animal quickly and without damaging much of the skin, which is where all the $ is made.

Not like they simply attacked him with a crossbow tho.



One of the guys in the boat would have had the line in his hands fighting with the gator to tire it out so they could get it to the surface. The only spot on a gator that is penetrable is about the size of a quarter and is on the top of their head, between the ears.

The head and back are tough but certainly not impenetrable, and the sides are much softer still. Even in the video there was an arrow in the back of the gator.

It was probably much like this, I doubt he had to really fight and hold it with hands, but rather tied it to something. Gators arent all that aggressive. Not to say they can't be of course, but still.

7:30 for Gator kill.

No joke, it tastes like a perfect mixture of chicken and fish. If you get the dark tail meat it is mostly a chewy fishy flavor if you get the tender white meat it tastes more like chicken with a fishy aftertaste. I've never had crocodile though.

The reason people say that things taste like chicken is because it's something that can be compared with the meat. If you tell people that crocodile tastes like crocodile people will think you're an asshole and not let you marry their first born.

Nah, second borns are better.

I don't think it tastes like chicken at all, it's so much more chewy. That being said if I could eat fried croc/alligator everyday of the year I'd do it.

That's why they hunt.
