Red Fox / Grey Fox I've been on the tee boxes or out on the fairways and have heard gators croaking to each other from
less than 20 feet away. Definitely keeps you from taking too long on your shot.
Walkers, evening strole out on Marsh Bend, I have seen one of these big 'uns over by Edna's. I was glad I didn't have my dog with me.
A different walk, heard one on Marsh Bend up by the Water Lily bridge. It was so close I crossed the road and walked in the grass just in case.
Gator kills a dog in Chitty Chatty. People don't realize how fast they can run. They CAN climb fences. They CAN open fence poles. Personally I wish they COULD be legally moved after a reaching certain sizes. I don't wish them harm BUT they have no preditors and all living things are their food source.
Maybe its just me, and I'm not playing along with the caption theme but I would want to know if I was walking into this cute little guy's path.
To be a good sport, "You and your little dog too."

Why do you say people are “wicked” for hunting gators?
Are you aware that the state of Florida has a gator hunting season if you draw a tag? It’s because there are a lot of gators and they can be thinned out where necessary. I’ve taken several off my airboat with a harpoon and got a lot of meat for my freezer.
If I’m on a walk with my dog, and one comes after me or my dog, I will take whatever means necessary.
