> Phil, which paper was that in?
Sorry, I should've said -- it was in the Travel section of 
Sunday's Raleigh News & Observer.
If you have WWW access you can learn more about the zoo at 
http://www.nando.net/sproject/zoo/zoo1.html (nando is the News & 
Obersvers' Internet arm) although this particular article doesn't 
mention anything about the CPs. It does however say that the 
alligators in the Cypress Swamp exhibit "...are nuisance animals 
straight out of Eastern North Carolina that were captured by 
state wildlife officers after turning up in populated areas or on 
sun-warmed roads, where they are prone to stop traffic."
