Firefighter Rescues Pit Bull Who Was Abused, Thrown In A Swamp And Attacked By Aligators

| Published on October 12, 2015

In New Orleans, a female Pit Bull is now on the road to recovery after being abused, and thrown off an interstate and left for dead. They named the poor thing Ally Gator, because not only was she thrown off a swamp, she was also bitten by an alligator.

Ally Gator was rescued by a volunteer firefighter named Eddie Simpson. Simpson heroically picked up 70-pound Ally with one arm, and carried her as he was climbing the ladder.

Ally was then brought to St. Charles Animal Shelter. They found that Ally had bitemarks–they were alligator bites. They believed that the bitemarks were from a gator who grabbed her by the neck.

Ally was such a good girl, and she was so happy and thankful for the kind people who saved her. Watch the video for the full story.

Ally is still recovering from the trauma and the injuries she sustained. But after she has recovered, she will be put up for adoption.

St. Charles Parish deputies are still investigating and searching for whoever is responsible for throwing Ally off the swamp. If you have any information regarding the incident, please contact the Sherrif’s Office at 985-783-6807.
