Alligators in New York State?? An alligator captured in Jamestown (3 feet long, found in a backyard)...but where the heck did it come from?

Sewer alligator stories date back to the late 1920s and early 1930s, in most instances they are part of contemporary legend. They are based upon reports of alligator sightings in rather unorthodox locations, in particular New York City.

(Wikipedia)

There are even reports of albino alligators in the sewers of New York City. How do they get here? Hitchhike...hop a ride on a black bear?

I know...the rain brought them....uggghhhh!
