Thankfully, they are very rare. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try to prevent them. Before I retired, I worked in risk management - which is trying to shut the door before the horse escapes.

If you were legally responsible for an alligator attack in the Villages, would you keep them here? Or would you remove them?

And they don’t have to be killed - the Everglades is a more suitable place for alligators. They could be transported down there. It is a long walk back - and they have short legs.
