You eat my horsie, I will hunt you down. Judy Cochran who just happens to be a grandmother and a the mayor of her town, had a bone to pick with the 12-foot, 580-pound critter in her ranch. She believed that monster lizard had eaten her miniature horse.
Miss Judy (You will address her with the proper tone or you will be sorry) represents everything about the Western spirit you thought it was just made for movies only: Fierce, a rancher and if you mess with her horse, you will get shot.
And this is your feel-good post for today.

I looked up the story to see if I could find out what she used, and there’s a video of the shot but with no details on the gun.
It’s a good, one shot kill. Gators have a tiny particle of brain in their skulls, it’s hard to target and there’s thick skull around it.
The story ends with, “Don’t mess with Nana!”

I live 12 miles south of Livingston, TX. She is a cookie of a lady!!! I know exactly where the place is where she shot this big lizard, we have several gators in our area, but, they are remnants of Harvey, and only a couple of feet long. But there are some HUGE gators, in the San Jacinto river. I live about 2500 feet from it….
Dang it, I just realized(my wife told me that is) that that is the mayor of Livingston. I’m about 5 or so miles from town, close to the lake. I guess I should’a clicked the link.
