From ABC News online:-
"A woman in Brazil says she was shocked to find an alligator hiding behind her sofa after heavy rains flooded her house. She says she was alerted to the alligator's presence by her son, who was patting the animal's head.
The woman snatched the child away and called the fire brigade, who trapped the one-and-a-half-metre long reptile.
Firefighters in the town of Parauapebas say the family was lucky the alligator was not hungry."
Good on you, son - show it who is boss!
