Saw a baby gator at Sumter landing yesterday around 7 pm, but it was so weird, the gator was so still, completely exposed on top of weeds, looking at us for ever. I thought it may be a fake, but it moved its eyelids once in a while. Hope it was okay.

Precisely why I don’t want to move there permanently. These are NOT like little lizards walking around… these things can kill you. I am wanting to come for lifestyle visit, however, this right here is stopping me. I’m VERY afraid of these things, I even have nightmares. Are they not controlled? 😢
