The man told the FWC officers the parts came from an alligator he had hunted years ago, WPEC reported. But the smell indicated the kill was a lot fresher, according to the FWC.

After reading him his rights, the man confessed to killing the alligator just a few days ago without a permit, according to the FWC.

Raymond Fettig, 18, of the Lake Worth area, faces misdemeanor charges of illegally possessing a recently killed gator, according to the SunSentinel.
