Happy Gilmore’ Star Alligator Morris Passes Away in Colorado Sanctuary

SHARE

Morris, the lovable alligator who became famous for his role in the Adam Sandler movie Happy Gilmore, has passed away from old age at a Colorado wildlife sanctuary. More than 50 years old, Morris lived an incredible life, from being a clandestine Los Angeles backyard pet to Hollywood’s beloved animal star with a film debut in 1975.

Morris was rescued from a private LA residence, where he had been illegally housed, and eventually rehomed at a professional animal training center. His gentle nature and unique appearance made him an obvious fit on set, earning him appearances in movies, television shows, and commercials. But it was Happy Gilmore—where he famously bit off Chubbs’ hand—that solidified Morris as a cult icon.

More recently, Morris retired from the public eye, living out his last years at the Colorado Gator Farm, a refuge for rescued reptiles. Staff there described him as active, well-nourished, and alert until his last few days. “He was a legend,” a farm spokesperson said. “He made people laugh, and he brought attention to animal rescue.”

Animal lovers and fans have been showing their respect online, posting images of Morris’s iconic moments and demanding a Happy Gilmore 2 in tribute to his memory. In an emotional entry, Adam Sandler referred to him as “a scene-stealer and true pro.” As the curtains close on one of Hollywood’s most unlikely stars, Morris leaves a legend as boisterous and open-hearted as his life.
