[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in FL and there are just way too many alligators to simply not have them around people. Most of the time they are harmless (they are nothing like saltwater crocs, which are in fact aggressive and seek out humans). You can go your whole life there without having a dangerous encounter so long as you take reasonable precautions, which means avoiding the shallow edges of water particularly at dawn and dusk, keeping pets leashed (small dogs and outdoor cats look like prey), don’t let small kids wade in water, don’t feed the alligators if you see them, etc. Also, you assume every body of water, even man-made has snakes and gators in it. Personally, I never really swam in the lakes down there although I know many people who regularly do. I’m more of a swimming pool gal.[/quote]
