I recall reading the only reason why man survived is that he does not taste good. However, with a good sauce-hey you can make anything taste good.
I worked security and was called to several alligators who wandered into garages where the owners had left the door open. With this 4 footer, the owner only had a crutch so I proceeded to move him along. He was about outside when he spun around, grabbed the top cushion from the crutch and tossed it in the driveway. I was 4 feet away, looking at it and never saw him do it!! They are indeed fast and powerful.

2 thoughts, eat and reproduce? That was my philosophy as a teenager. I wonder how many cats and dogs that gator has eaten to get that big.

I prefer to see none over 4 ft long. That should be the goal of Florida Wildlife Management. I wonder if a person could legally shoot one over 4 feet long with a bow if it were on their property. It can certainly be thought of as representing a danger to human life and limb.
