(12,153 posts)in high school, I applied for a job at Reptile Gardens, which is near Rapid City. I thought it sounded like an exciting change from working on Wyoming dude ranches. Mr. Brockelsby, the owner of RG, said that before hiring me for the whole summer, he wanted to see how I would get along around the snakes and alligators. He said that because I was tall and well-built (strong), I might turn out to be a good candidate to be their first female alligator wrestler. I began by helping to clean snake cages the next morning. When it came time to feed the snakes, I couldnt take it and decided the job wasnt for me. Those cute little white mice...omg, I couldnt stand it that those sweet little pink-nosed, cute-whiskered mousieboos were being put live into the snake cages and pits for the snakes to eat. The poor little mice just hid the best they could and nervously cleaned their little whiskers and prayed to Mouse God to save them. I never became Gator Gal, but that was okay with me. I would have probably felt sorry for whatever they ate too.
