The alligator discovered in a New York City park reportedly has a bathtub stopper stuck in her body, and her caretakers have been unable to remove it because of her poor state of health.

Godzilla weighed about 15lbs when found, a little less than half the weight of an alligator this size. According to the image of a radiograph from the Bronx Zoo, where Godzilla is receiving treatment, there is an object stuck in the right part of her stomach: a 4-inch wide bathtub stopper, WCS said in its statement.

Godzilla is unable to eat by herself and is being fed through a tube, with nutrients, vitamins as well as antibiotics and anti-fungal medicine.

In the past five years, six alligators have been rescued in the city, according to the Animal Care Centers. Not all of those were rescued from parks.

Some, for instance, were seized during drug busts or while law enforcement officers served a search warrant.
