Old News, and somebody had to of released it. Because they cannot live in Missouri due to it gets way to cold up there. 

Actually Gators can survive here.  What they can't do is maintain a population, because even if a gator was to find a mate, and they did the wild thing.....all eggs would hatch as females.   The sex of the hatchling depends on the number of days the egg is kept at a given temperature.  

Or something like that.

hopefully a MDC biologist will chime in and explain the reasoning of this?  Sounds like it would be a good project to spend years studying at taxpayers expense.
