Should never give location of gators.
Someone will always be ready to report, and get them killed by trappers.

Fish, frogs, lizards, snakes, birds, rats, raccoons, cats, dogs, and the occasional golfer trying to retrieve a stray ball from the pond. Or so I have been told.

I love seeing your pictures! That's about how close I ever want to get to a gator, though.
What amazing creatures living among us!

Why not at home if you’re tired it’s safer & nothing there to eat you!

What about pets who linger at water's edge?

Specifying the location may keep some pets from being eaten, too!!!!!

Why would any responsible dog owner even walk their dog near any water edge in TV?

There’s no reason to specify because we all just assume every pond has a gator or two. It’s the ones you never see that get you.

He has been seen by many golfers. If they trap him they will just move him to somewhere safe.

Not sure if they watching TOTV site looking for large gators.

When they move them, they don't move them to somewhere safe. They take them to be "processed".
