Woman Fights To Keep Her Alligator Rambo
女子為保心愛鱷魚 不惜杠上政府
Mary Thorn’s, a woman from Lakeland, Florida, is doing everything she can to keep her 6-foot-long, 125 pound alligator named Rambo as a pet.
來自佛羅里達州萊克蘭地區的瑪麗·索恩現正想方設法地爭取收養一條6英尺長,125磅重的名為“藍博”鱷魚的權利。
Rambo can be seen in pictures wearing clothes and riding on the back of Thorn's motorcycle.
照片中的藍博穿一身寵物衣,愜意的呆在索恩摩托車的后座上。
Rambo even has his own bedroom.
藍博甚至還有自己專用的臥室。
Eleven years ago, Thorn purchased a license so she could legally own Rambo, but he has now grown to be 6 feet long.
十一年前,索恩辦理了合法收養藍博的相關手續,但藍博現在已經6英尺長了。
If an alligator is 6 feet, the owner must provide said alligator at least 2.5 acres of land to live on.
按照法律規定,如果鱷魚的長度達到6英尺,其主人須為其提供2.5英畝的地區生活。
Thorn, however, does not own that much land.
可是,索恩并沒有那么多的土地。
Hence, the battle she is undertaking to try and keep Rambo.
因此,她不得不開始為繼續收養藍博來回奔波。
