Alligator eats dog: 500-pound gator devours 80-pound Husky

A 'behemoth of a gator' came out of nowhere and ate a 9 month old Siberian husky in Jacksonville, North Carolina, according to the dog's owners.

Amy Matz was out walking and playing fetch with her husky, Simba, on Tuesday when the 80-pound dog ran over to a nearby creek to drink some water where a massive 12-foot long alligator lay waiting.

The 500-pound gator lunged at Simba and smashed him against the ground before pulling the canine underwater.

State wildlife officials located the alligator and Wednesday and shot and killed it.
