Proving that there IS a "bell-curve" of human intelligence, here's a story about one woman who falls on the lower end of it... From Yahoo:
An anonymous call regarding an alligator on a chain led Fish and Wildlife officers to a home in Elkton Sunday.The officers searched a canal behind the residence and discovered a metal fence pole that had been driven into the ground.
A 5-foot alligator wearing a dog collar around its trunk was attached to the chain by a dog collar.
The officers went to the residence and interviewed a female occupant.
The female said that she had caught the gator and was keeping it as a pet and had had it for approximately three months, feeding it four pieces of chicken a day.
The female was issued misdemeanor notices to appear for possession of an American alligator and feeding a wild American alligator.
The alligator was released back into the wild at another location.
