Lindsay Bull escaped him narrowly.
This caregiver at a reptile center in West Valley City, Utah in the United States, was attacked on August 14 by Dath Gator, an alligator over 2 meters in length, while she was doing an animation for a birthday in front of children.
When she opened the window of the animal's pelvis to feed it, it grabbed her hand and dragged her into her box.
"Yet it is something that I do all the time," explains the young woman afterwards.
"I can't tell you what exactly happened, he bit really hard."
To the amazement of visitors who came with several young children, the caregiver struggles in the pool but nothing does: the alligator does not let go of its hand.
Donnie Wiseman, a man who came to watch the animation, then climbs on the back of the animal, so that it lets go.
The young woman is finally pulled out of the pelvis and Donnie Wiseman can free the alligator before leaping out of the pelvis.

" It was an accident.
It's more my fault than Dath Gator's, ”explains the caregiver.
On Facebook, the company indicates that the young woman had been given first aid on the spot before help arrived.
Lindsay Bull was then operated on, but she is well out of danger.
