Lanier gator still on the loose

State wildlife officials continue to come up empty in their search for an alligator that’s been spotted in Lake Lanier. A Department of Natural Resources biologist says the gator has yet to take the bait placed in traps set last week. Officials have also been conducting night searches with spotlights. The search for the three-to-four foot long gator has continued from late last month. The hope is to catch the gator and return it to a more traditional habitat in south Georgia.
