three times a year and while in
Glendive was enjoying one of its tri-
ennial feasts. The monster reptile,
which is 80 feet in length and weighs
400 pounds was fed IA live chickens.
When the last chicken was being fed
to the reptile it made an attempt to
grasp it in its jaws and missed and
grasped its own tail Fearing that
the reptile might injure itself, the
trainer went into the den and tried
to pry the jaws loose from the tail,
with the result that the reptile wound
itself around the trainer and started
to crush him, whereupon the trainer
called for help and with the aid of
two men and a board, was able to
free himself.
