An enormous alligator caught by four friends in Mississippi on Saturday has broken the state’s records for the longest and heaviest ever snared.
The scaly beast hauled from the Yazoo River by Don Woods, Tanner White, Will Thomas and Joey Clark measured 14 feet three inches in length, according to the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks (MDWFP), whose Alligator Program co-ordinator Andrew Arnett made the official measurement.
