Dog ate my gater

Vicious Dog Pack Attacks Gator
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 it's 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 years.

Not for the squeamish - But very interesting!
it's a remarkable photograph courtesy of Nature Magazine.

"I knew an old spider that swallowed a fly I don't know why he swallowed that fly i think he'll die" lucky she didn't eat an alligator.

rumour has it from our correspondant on the spot, a freelancer might I add, so they are dispensable. They were
using a 1200mil lens for safety. The line got cut so looking at the picture it most probably was at F1.8 and a shutter speed at the velocity of a speeding corgi, to freeze the viscious frenzy.
