Most gators have been removed from The Villages? I don't agree. I think they only remove them if they get large and troublesome. Otherwise the retention ponds are havens for gators and they migrate through the irrigation pipes. We even had a gator briefly visit our "puddle" in back of our house, and then he moved on.
