Once you name them you have to keep them

While I kinda like the idea of a local "legend", he may be getting to large for this area, if he (I am assuming sex is correct) needs to be relocated this is to an area where he can live out his natural life. I have actually tried to see him several times when we have visitors, and darn it he hides every time!!

I've looked for Larry every time I've taken that path on my bike or golf cart for the two years I've lived here and never seen him. Well, at least I've seen video of him now! He's a handsome boy, though not as big as a few I've seen and gotten pretty close to up in Sweetwater by Gainesville.

I don't think they are relocated, unfortunately. I think they are killed.

Leave him alone. He's been there for years and never posed a problem.

Absolutely! Gators were here long before there were people and still deserve a place to live.

He'll be relocated to a shoe store.

They are. Definitely.

They will cause no problem if people and pets respect their space. If you allow a pet to get to close, and a gator does what gators do, thats the pet owners fault.
Personally I like to see all wildlife thrive around TV.
With all the chemicals used, and unending development (not complaining) wildlife struggles to exhist as it is.
