A Utah animal trainer is recovering after the alligator she was feeding during a girl's birthday party chomped down on her hand and refused to let go until after one of the adult guests jumped on its back to help her
Lindsay Bull, 31, said that she's fed Darthgator hundreds of times in the past, but the 8-foot-6-inch long star attraction at Scales and Tails Utah was being a little pushy on Saturday when she opened a plexiglass door to his enclosure.
"The alligator eventually let go and Todd Christopher, another guest, was able to grab Bull under her arms and pull her out of the enclosure.The gator thrashed a bit before Wiseman was able to climb off its back and get away. CNN has been unable to reach Wiseman."Anytime something so traumatic happens like that, I think just having somebody there with you, is a comfort no matter what they're doing," Bull said.
