(Pics)10 year old girl survives alligator attack by prying open animal's mouth to free herself

 A courageous 10-year-old girl pried open an alligator’s mouth, freeing herself after being attacked while standing in shallow lake waters at a Florida park.

Officials of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission claim the child was sitting in two-feet-deep water around 3 p.m. Saturday when the alligator approached and sunk its teeth into her leg at least seven times.
