Description

A Texas woman is recovering from a terrifying alligator attack that happened while she was kayaking with a group in Florida earlier this year. The incident occurred on Tiger Creek in Polk County and left her with severe injuries to her arm, requiring extensive medical care. According to a report, 64-year-old Christiane Salvador and her husband were among a group of 20 people kayaking in early March when Salvador felt something bump her paddle. Moments later, the paddle snapped, apparently bitten in half by an alligator.
