Default Alligator sightings.....

Has anyone seen any large alligators lately? If so, please post where you saw them (Village, golf course, etc.)
We have guests and they would like to see a big gator. Thanks in advance. ☺

You want the ones that have eaten recently or the hungry ones?

Please take the short trip to Orlando and go to Gatorland; it’s a
lot safer there. People here have a tendency to try and get too close to them (not good) or talk up gators too much and the next thing you know, they’re captured and removed.

Gatorland is great, you'll see thousands of 'em. Though it'll be hot this time of year, there's not much A/C to be had. Feb-April is the best time, the gators are more active and the birds are nesting.

They seem to let the larger ones near the dock in Lake Sumter stay.

Ok gators, listen up.
We are expecting company soon so be on your best behavior.
No fooling around with the tourist, especially the ones from the New England states or biting them in the @ss
or showing off your swimming skills.

And most of all, don't eat their dogs just because they taste like chicken.
