Joie Henney from Pennsylvania suffers from depression following the death of his three close friends. While people with mental health problems turn to medication and self-help, Joie claims to use an emotional support alligator. The five-foot-long alligator is named Wally and was approved by Joie’s doctors. Wally was rescued from Orlando when he was still 14 months old. Now, he’s 4 years old.

Despite being an emotional support animal, Joie knows that Wally can inflict harm at any moment because he’s a wild animal. For now, Joie describes the animal like a big teddy bear who likes to snuggle and give him hugs.
