Baby Alligator in Bucket

One way native people pass the time in the Amazon is by catching baby alligators - if they can find one. Too bad so many have been wiped out to make belts, handbags and shoes. In Chanajao, Peru, this baby alligator, snatched from the Ucayali river, is looking for the exit. We made sure this lucky one was eventually released.
