Palmdale, Florida - 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.

Palmdale, Florida - Gatorama - Goliath the Champ Near the end of the elevated tourist walk over the swamp pond, a 40 year old, one-and-a-half ton crocodile named Goliath is missing an eye and two feet of his tail (he's still 14-ft. long). Around his cage hang the skulls of nine other gators he has bested in water sport.
He must've been trained by the late Cecil Clemons! [Robot Greg, 12/07/2004]
