An alligator handler got wrangled in by the animal she was hired to control– yet prior to things transformed lethal … some instant heroics by zoo visitors saved the day.
An unidentified staff member of Scales and Tails Utah– who was in charge of flaunting one of the facility’s gators to paying consumers– got trapped in the pet’s teeth as it clamped down on her hand, and also barrel-rolled her!!!
It was a freaky scene … the woman resembled she was about to end up being alligator food Saturday, right there in front of alarmed zoo goers– that is, till an individual named Donnie Wiseman literally tossed himself right into the mix … jumping on the gator’s back.
He was, thankfully, able to get it to quit rolling, and after that the handler advised him on what to do following– seems like she was taking steps to avoid herself from having an anxiety attack … and also, ultimately, the gator loosened its grip, and also another visitor pulled her to safety and security.
That left Wiseman in addition to the gator by himself, and also the trainer stuck around to walk him with how to get out of the sitch. At some point, he got away uninjured.
The worker was hospitalized, but is recovering. When it comes to DW … bona fide HERO!!!
