What happens because of other animals and insects is not relevant to alligators. If you have a problem with those, start a thread about them.
In accident investigations, when there are "near misses" that have happened, it is a leading indicator that something worse is likely to happen in the future unless corrective action is taken now. I'm sure the neighbors around the 95y woman that got killed also said it would never happen. Then it did happen. I don't buy into the "it will never happen" concept, when it already has happened. We have the choice to make things safer, or wait for another incident.
