The alligator bit is pure fictions, and strictly a vehicle to allow Illya to escape and inescapable situation (please not there were no animals other than humans harmed in the writing of this spy fantasy.)
The black panther came up in my research for the Louisiana swamps and as of very recently there was another sighting of one in real life. Though the only type of panther that inhabits the area is the Florida Panther. Hmmm this story could be a bit of explanation for a black panther population to now exist there...cross breeding with the Florida panther...the black one that got away could have started it all. LOL!
I agree with the crossbow and nothing with those sort of moving parts would be totally silent,...the release of the wire itself would make a noise but again for the sake of the story a little poetic license was taken. This is after all, fiction.
thanks so much for reading and taking the time to comment. Always appreciated.
