A friend sent me an email about this.
"This was taken by a KTBS helicopter flying over Cross Lake! (For those of you who are not local, Cross Lake is in Shreveport, La.) That has to be a HUGE gator to have a whole deer in its mouth! Are you ready to go skiing on Cross Lake?! If you ski at the west end of the lake -- try not to fall."
I write her back,
"Wow!
I grew up there...fished that laked hundreds of times. I lived 50' from the western shore one year.
I've seen some little ones were around 3 and 4 footers. Every once in a while you would hear about a citing but nothing like this.
Cross Lake is a city water supply. A beast like this is unexpected. It would be much like spotting one in Lake Maumelle. (city water supply to Little Rock, AR)

So, Here is evidence to what I've suspected. I've been deep into the bayous on the southern side of that lake. Strangly beautiful. Let's go show the flashlight guys.
Hold on there, Tiger. Before you do, you might want to validate your information.
Alas, KTBS says not our chopper, not our picture.
I think they got me because it is very possible.
Oh well, thought you guys would enjoy the photos.
