There are specialized wildlife people that remove LARGE, LARGE gators. It just takes a phone call. You remove the ones over 4ft from a large area and barring droughts, you have 2 years of NOT worrying about dog kills and elderly woman being HUNTED AND KILLED.
.........To all those that feel for the plight of the poor, poor Winston 19 ft gators of the world JUST IMAGINE the SHEER TERROR experienced by that poor 85 year old lady. Now imagine the staff of say the Villages calling her relatives to say SORRY RELATIVES, "We cared MORE about Winston the prehistoric human eating KILLER than your insignificant 85-year-old relative that just became GATOR breakfast."
......And that happened in daylight......GATORS are far more aggressive at night. I can't understand ANYONE that would NOT want the lakes of the Villages hunted and hunted until all GATORS over 4 ft were eliminated. You can't possibly eliminate them all.......but you damn SURE can eliminate all those over 4 ft with just a LITTLE bit of willpower. That lady was from a generation of Americans that defeated the Nazis in WW2. You mean to tell me that our current generation does NOT have the willpower to defeat and eliminate any and all over 4 ft GATORS in The Villages. Think of LARGE gators as the Gestapo of the Villages lakes and low areas.
........I can't believe that anyone would trade HUMAN life for reptile life. I am NOT saying turn gators into endangered species - I am saying remove the LARGER human-killing ones from dense human communities like OURS. It IS one of those famous "no-brainers" where there is NOT 2 sides of the story!!!!!!!
