St Johns County Sheriff's Office Deputy Richardson performs the daring rescue
圣约翰县警局副警长理查德森执行大胆救援
A Florida police officer has become an internet sensation after bodycam footage showed him single-handedly rescuing a feisty alligator from a residential swimming pool. The video, released by St Johns County Sheriff's Office, depicts Deputy Justin Richardson calmly reaching into the water to wrangle the 4ft (1.2m) reptile onto the pool deck using only his bare hands."He was super mad," Richardson later told local media, describing how the gator thrashed and snapped its jaws during the operation last Friday in St Augustine.
佛罗里达一名警察因执法记录仪视频走红网络，画面显示他独自从居民泳池救出一只凶猛鳄鱼。圣约翰县警局发布的视频中，副警长贾斯汀·理查德森镇定地将手伸入水中，仅用双手就将这只4英尺（1.2米）长的爬行动物拖到泳池边。"它气疯了，"理查德森事后告诉当地媒体，描述上周五在圣奥古斯丁市执行任务时鳄鱼如何猛烈挣扎咬合。
The startled homeowners had called authorities after discovering the uninvited swimmer in their backyard pool. Sheriff's office spokesperson Chuck Mulligan said the alligator likely wandered into the neighborhood during recent heavy rains that flooded local waterways. Richardson, a 12-year veteran with the department's Animal Services Unit, told reporters he relied on years of reptile-handling experience:"You gotta grab 'em right behind the head - that's the sweet spot."
受惊的房主在后院泳池发现这位不速之客后报警。警局发言人查克·穆里根表示，这只鳄鱼可能是在近期暴雨导致当地水道泛滥时误入居民区。在警局动物服务部门工作12年的理查德森告诉记者，他凭借多年处理爬行动物的经验："必须准确抓住它们脑后部——那是关键点。"
After securing the thrashing gator with what witnesses called"almost casual confidence", Richardson carried it to his patrol car and drove it to a nearby pond for release. Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission data shows the state averages over 16,000 nuisance alligator complaints annually, with licensed trappers removing about 7,500 yearly. While most encounters end peacefully, alligators have killed 26 people in Florida since 1948.
在用目击者形容"近乎随意的自信"控制住挣扎的鳄鱼后，理查德森将它抱上巡逻车，送往附近池塘放生。佛罗里达鱼类和野生动物保护委员会数据显示，该州每年平均收到超过16,000起鳄鱼扰民投诉，持证捕手每年约移除7,500只。虽然多数遭遇平安结束，但自1948年以来佛罗里达鳄鱼已造成26人死亡。

Sheriff Robert Hardwick praised his officer's composure, calling it"a textbook example of professional wildlife management". The viral video has garnered over 2 million views on social media, with users dubbing Richardson the"Gator Whisperer". Not all feedback was positive though - some wildlife experts criticized the hands-on approach as unnecessarily risky."Even small gators can inflict serious injury," cautioned herpetologist Dr. Samuel Waters."We always recommend calling professionals with proper tools."
警长罗伯特·哈德威克赞扬警员的沉着，称这是"专业野生动物管理的典范"。这段爆红视频在社交媒体获得超200万次观看，网友称理查德森为"鳄鱼语者"。但并非所有反馈都是积极的——一些野生动物专家批评这种徒手方式风险过高。"即使小鳄鱼也能造成严重伤害，"爬行动物学家塞缪尔·沃特斯博士警告道，"我们始终建议呼叫配备专业工具的人员。"
The sheriff's office later tweeted that both officer and gator emerged unscathed, adding the hashtag #OnlyInFlorida - a nod to the state's reputation for bizarre wildlife encounters. Richardson, for his part, remains modest:"Just doing my job. Though I might start carrying a bigger net."
警局随后发推文称警员和鳄鱼都安然无恙，并加上标签#只有佛州——呼应该州以离奇野生动物遭遇闻名的名声。理查德森本人则保持谦虚："只是履行职责。不过我可能会开始带个更大的网。"
