Animals & Reptiles Caught-Up In The Flooding

In Sunday's Vicksburg Post classified ads, Byron Flowers, had sent in several pictures that he took while traveling on the Mississippi River Mainline Levee near Halpino Lake.  He saw herds of deer crossing the levee, obviously running from the rising water.  He said about 500 deer passed that afternoon.  In the bottom photo an alligator appears to be taking a break from the floodwaters north of town.  

My daughter, Kathy, who works at Riverwalk Casino said that a Security Supervisor witness deer swimming across the MS River.
