A woman captured a wild horse attacking a gator at Paynes Prairie State Park in Florida, just south of Gainesville.
Krystal M. Berry said on Facebook she was “still shaking” after witnessing the skirmish between the two animals.
Horse attacking a gator at Paynes Prairie. I’m still shaking.
Also: I did contact the reserve to check on the horse and gator. There were no clear signs of distress / bleeding when we left the site.
A Beretta Testimonial.
Woman stops gator attack with a small Beretta pistol.
This is a story of self control and marksmanship by a brave, cool-headed woman with a small pistol against a fierce predator. What is the smallest caliber that you would trust to protect yourself?
Here is her story:
While out walking along the edge of a bayou just below Houma, Louisiana with my soon to be ex-husband discussing property settlement and other divorce issues, we were surprised by a huge 12-ft. alligator suddenly emerging from the murky water and charging us with its large jaws wide open. She must have been protecting her nest because the alligator was extremely aggressive.
If I had not had my little Beretta Pistol with me I would not be here today! Just one shot to my husband’s knee cap was all it took. The gator got him easily and I was able to escape by just walking away at a brisk pace. It’s one of the best pistols in my collection! Plus … the amount I saved in lawyer’s fees were more than worth the purchase price of this gun.
