On August 28, 2018, MUD 500 received a report of a sighting of an approximately 3’ to 4’ alligator on the morning of August 26, 2018, underneath the Tuckerton Bridge, west of the intersection of Tuckerton Road and Towne Lake Parkway. MUD 500 immediately notified its wildlife management contractor of the sighting and directed the trapper to actively monitor for an alligator and, if one is located, to immediately remove it upon obtaining the required nuisance permit from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.
MUD 500 continues to request that residents report any sightings of alligators to its operator, Environmental Development Partners, at (832) 467-1599. MUD 500 encourages your district to share this information with your residents.
