GATOR ATTACKS TRAINER AT UTAH ZOO

An alligator handler got wrangled in by the creature she was hired to control but before things turned deadly some on-the-spot heroics by zoo guests saved the day.

An unidentified employee of Scales and Tails Utah who was in charge of showing off one of the facility’s gators to paying customers got ensnared in the animal’s teeth as it clamped down on her hand, and barrel-rolled her.

Luckily, a zoo guest literally threw himself into the mix jumping on the gator’s back freeing the handler, while escaping himself unscathed.
