How Sick 13-Foot Alligator With Cancer History Gets CT Scan For Diagnosis

This alligator has been in agony with a loss in appetite and weight. So doctors decided to give the 13-foot reptile named Casper a CT scan to find out what’s troubling him. Casper unfortunately has a history of cancer. He’s suffers from melanoma. The 19-year-old also has a lighter than normal skin tone. Still he’s one of the more popular animals at Jungle Island. The results of the CT will be sent to vets at the University of Florida who will hopefully learn more on how to help him.
