Sulphur, La. —
This big gator is the largest alligator caught in Louisiana so far this alligator season. It was caught by Rodney Duhon, of Sulphur, on Saturday, September 5, with the help of his sons, Dr. David M. Duhon, D.C. and Jean-Paul Duhon and their children, Keegan M. Duhon, Kendall K. Duhon and Trey Duhon. The gator officially measured 13 feet and 5 inches and weighed around 700 pounds. Duhon caught the gator at his home on English Bayou, 2939 Old Town Road. The gator has been in the bayou for years and recently has been eating more chickens than usual. The gator took several gunshots to the head without stopping until Benjamin Richard of the Gray Estate shot it in the eye. He then tagged the gator. Experts notified said the gator was probably about 60 to 65 years old. The Duhons would like to thank David Richard of the Gray Estate for his assistance. The gator is pictured with Duhon and one of his grandchildren. Youtube has several videos of the hunt and more information at bacdoc2020.
