Meth-Gators Are Here!
No joke – your sewer could be filled with Meth-fueled Monsters!
A police department in Tennessee is warning people to stop flushing drugs down their toilets or sinks out of fear they could create “Meth Gators!”
Yes, take a pile of drugs and flush them down your toilet – guess who’s benefiting – this guy!
The Loretto Police Department in Tennessee recently posted an ominous Facebook warning after officers found a suspect unsuccessfully trying to flush meth and paraphernalia at a home.
As the local CBS affiliate reported:
He was arrested, but police say this is becoming an issue because flushed drugs can end up in retention ponds for processing before they are sent downstream.
“Our sewer guys take great pride in releasing water that is cleaner than what is in the creek, but they are not really prepared for meth,” the police department wrote on social media. “Ducks, geese, and other fowl frequent our treatment ponds and we shudder to think what one all hyped up on meth would do.”
Law enforcement said if the meth made it far enough, gators could end up consuming it in Shoal Creek and the Tennessee River.
“They’ve had enough methed up animals the past few weeks without our help,” police wrote. “So, if you need to dispose of your drugs just give us a call and we will make sure they are disposed of in the proper way.”
Well, there you go – “Meth Gators” are the next killer animal!
I wonder if those cops realized that right next door, in Arkansas, killer Sharks were on the loose as well! It’s just one of many goofy “killer animal” movies, like this one:

This really made me laugh when I saw it! I’m in the UK, but scientists have recently spoken out about how many fish and other creatures such as eels in the river Thames in London are becoming hyperactive due to ingesting cocaine…

I just read about this yesterday John. My husband and I were wondering how this would effect an Apex predator. Probably make them even more fearless and aggressive.

I am glad that we don’t have alligators over here, John. And one of them on Crystal Meth would be even harder to deal with, I’m sure. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
