The Humboldt Park Alligator (affectionately known as Chance the Snapper) was caught earlier today by an experienced alligator catcher brought in from Florida.
Frank Robb, owner of Crocodilian Specialist Services in St. Augustine, Florida was summoned after the alligator eluded local catcher Alligator Bob for a week. Coincidentally, this was Robb's first time in Chicago and it looks like he'll be able to celebrate in grand fashion.
Unfortunately, Chance the Snapper will likely not be joining him.
