- California narcotics investigators raiding a home's $1.5 million marijuana growing operation found an alligator guarding the stash.
A Riverside County drug task force team moved in on the Hemet area house on Monday night and seized 2,285 pot plants. Allied Riverside Cities Narcotics Enforcement Team Cmdr. Brian Link says agents also found Wally, a four-foot alligator described as a "watchgater."
The healthy 55-pound American alligator has been turned over to the Phelan-based Forever Wild Exotic Animal Sanctuary. Alligators are illegal in California.
That isn't the only thing illegal in California ::rimshot:: But seriously folks - take my wife, please!
Unless you have a moat and drawbridge, we can't see an alligator being a very effective watch-anything.
