Pack Of Dogs Kill Alligator In Florida
PACK OF DOGS KILL ALLIGATOR IN FLORIDA

At times nature can be cruel, but there is also a raw beauty,
and even a certain justice manifested within that cruelty.
The alligator, one of the oldest and ultimate predators,
normally considered the "apex predator" in its natural ecosystem,
can still fall victim to implemented 'team work' strategy,
made possible due to the tight knit social structure and
"survival of the fittest pack mentality", bred into the canines
over the last several hundreds of years by natural selection.
See the attached remarkable photograph courtesy of Nature Magazine
Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the gator
preventing it from breathing, while the remainder of the pack
prevents the beast from rolling.

Not for the squeamish!
