Critchlow Alligator Sanctuary

Officials conducted a wellness check on a resident's home, only to find him deceased, and his pet dog and alligator neglected.

A LOT of news lately about Alligators in the Kalamazoo area, but it turns out, they aren't as uncommon in Michigan as you'd think, and the Critchlow Alligator Sanctuary has DOZENS of them.

The home owner advised that the alligator came from a pond and swamp area on his property and was walking across the yard.
