Senior,

A good friend our ours is a Disney cast member. He tells us there is a team of employees who patrol for and control those undesirable critters. He was recruited in assisting in the removal of a rather large gator once and it is quite a story. He did a Crocodile Hunter maneuver holding the gator's mouth closed while the professional wrangler wrapped duct tape around the snout. It gives me the creeps, but then, he always did seem to be lacking the "fear" gene.
