Trapper Jack removed four gators Wednesday morning from ponds in Hinesville's Bryant Commons Park.  The city contracted Trapper Jack and his assistant, Valerie Jones, to remove the nuisance gators for fear they would attack children who fish in the ponds during special events. Bryant Commons, which is leased by the city, holds music festivals and events that draw large crowds.  Jones said the gators will not be euthanized andwill be relocated 20-25 miles from Hinesville.
