When office pets attack

Unusual: having an office pet. Worrying: the pet is an alligator. Stupid: feeding the alligator while drunk at a corporate party. A Russian man has been hospitalised after trying to feed a sausage to his office alligator - who unsurprisingly decided the hand holding the treat looked tastier. Mosnews.com reports that the alligator, called Musya, has lived in the office of the Moscow company for eight years. Company director Anton Skvortsov explained: “I thought Musya should have a holiday, too. “I gathered some food from the dinner, and went to feed my handsome.” The alligator immediately rushed forward and grabbed Anton’s arm, but the drunk man managed to escape and was rushed to hospital, where doctors told him he was luck to survive.
