A DARING group of alligator wranglers are proving that age is just a number – with a 13-year-old girl joining their ranks. General Manager, Jay Young, 45, heads up the Colorado Gator Farm with the help of his family and a few close friends. With the conservation of animals at the core of their sanctuary, Jay houses close to 300 gators on his 80-acre site and he interacts with them all, even Elvis – a colossal gator weighing 650lbs. Jay and his team only wrangle the gators when there is a need to do so, for example, transporting them to a different pond. And when it comes to the smaller gators, even Jay’s 13-year-old niece, Addie, helps out with the potentially deadly task.
