Move Over Florida

It's beginning to look like perhaps Pennsylvania may be in line to bump Florida from the top spot in the weirdness category.  A retired hunting/fishing show host has a 3 year old 4 1/2 foot alligator named Wally who he refers to as an emotional support animal. He takes Wally around to schools and senior centers and insists he is just like a dog in that he enjoys having his head rubbed and being loved and petted. When they are at home Wally spends the bulk of his time in a 300 gallon pond in the living room where he enjoys watching TV,he also likes hiding in cupboards...what a surprise that must be to open a cupboard and discover Wally. I'm guessing he named him after the cartoon gator named Wally.

Henney has had Wally for nearly the gator's whole life, almost four years. Wally stays inside Henney's house and eats raw, dead, chicken.
