Yeah, They're Cute Until They Grow Up

A foot-long reptile, first believed to be a baby alligator, was found in a dumpster at the Mystic Seaport Mobil gas station on Monday evening. Turns out it was actually a South American Dwarf Caiman which apparently grow up to 5-feet in length and are pretty aggressive. They're guessing it was probably someone's pet until it started getting too big to manage. Good thing it was found found before it went all Surface on us!
