While this is certainly a tragedy for the woman and her family, the real story is that she was walking her two dogs (that's meals, in alligator speak) very close to the pond. Most likely, the gator snapped at and grabbed one of the dogs and she was grabbed as she tried to save it.

Keep your dogs, emotional support pets, children, and selves away from the banks of ponds which are natural habitats for gators!
