Milwaukee Postal Workers Find Live Gator

MILWAUKEE -- A four-foot alligator chewed its way out of a shipping
carton
before a postal worker tossed it into a hamper and called animal control
officers.
Employees were sorting mail Friday when they noticed the alligator
chewing its
way out of an Express Mail box, said JoAnne Blackburn, a Postal Service
spokeswoman.
Workers tried to tape the box closed, but the alligator bit it open.
"The nose ... was sticking out with its teeth hanging out," said postal
employee Jennifer Hejdak. She said a co-worker picked it up by its tail
and
threw it in a hamper.
The alligator remain at a shelter for a week before being shipped to a
northern
Illinois sanctuary, said Len Selkurt, executive director of the
Milwaukee Area
Domestic Animal Control. The sanctuary owner will then take it to
Florida, he
said.
Alligators longer than 20 inches are not allowed to be sent through the
mail,
and officials said the shipment from Milwaukee to Colorado was under
review
