Reggie: blogger, lover, alligator

Councilwoman Janice Hahn sent out an update today on our favorite, formerly-free alligator, Reggie. He's doing just fine at the LA Zoo, waiting for his new enclosure and feasting on quail.

Reggie, as you may recall, was first spotted in Machada Lake in August 2005 and repeatedly eluded gator wranglers who tried to capture him. His freedom ended on May 24 when people spied him near a partially eaten chicken leg. He was nabbed shortly thereafter and taken to the LA Zoo.

Since his arrival at the zoo, Reggie managed to update his blog, where he thanked supporters for their love and urged them to visit him at the zoo. Scroll down his blog and check out Reggie's response to a survey. So is this chicken-chomping reptile a lover or fighter? A lover.
