Gatorama Have several pics of Cecil, and a couple hours interviews on tape. "How long do you think a gator can live 'thout a bunghole?" he asked. Said he had a five footer! Included pic shows Cecil stripping a cow. The Lykes Bros. would call him when a cow died in the field, and Cecil would take care of it, saving certain parts for his wildcats.
