A call about possible animal cruelty in Kenosha leads to the discovery of several alligators, both dead and alive.

Kenosha Police Lieutenant Brad Kemen says officers were called to the home on Monday, and found the skeleton of a nearly four foot alligator in a large aquarium on the lawn, along with the bodies of a snake, another alligator and a fawn.

Inside the home, police discovered two more alligators, a crocodile, a Gila monster and a very large snapping turtle.

The Racine Zoo and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources helped remove the animals from the home and an investigation is underway.
