Gators do help the environment. But, dogs are a huge help with people's mental health. Cannot say that of alligators. Not sure how much they help with man-made lakes and ponds.

good - the fewer poop machine mutts we have walking around here, the better

They were going to make that movie. No need to put the dog down, the gator will do it every time.

Reality, it almost does not matter. The movie JAWS, led to people killing any shark.
A alligator has a brain roughly the size of a pea. I knows EAT and reproduce. In the villages, they tend to get too used to people. I've read that people survived because they do not taste good. Alligators, do not even ask for salt and pepper.

Driving around you see people down by the ponds all the time. Sitting, walking, picnicking etc. You see little kids running around as well as dogs. I many cases these people have jumped a fence to get into the area, no clue that the fences are there for a reason. Back when they had to take Larry away it was people felt the need to feed him so he started looking to be fed which became a major issue.

Sorry about the dog but the owner best face some charges.

Gators were hunted by various Native American tribes-- carefully though. https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistoria...minole_in_the/

Sounds to me like the Pet Owner should have been the animal that was put down!!!!!!

agreed, they should go the way of the dinosaur, i say put the arc committee on it. They'll hound them out of the villages.
ALSO THEY COULD CONSTRUCT A NEW BEDROCK VILLAGE AND RELOCATE ALL THE GATORS AND THEIR FANS THERE

Alligator does what hungry alligators do when they see a lunch, and takes and kills one of the dogs.
Trapper called to kill Alligator!
Why?
If someone is dumb enough to take dogs to a pond area, and let them off leash to wander, why has poor alligator got to die.
Surely owner should be charged with allowing dogs off leash, and cruelty to animals?
My entire sympathy is with alligator, and poor dog who died!

Sorry but the Alligator has to go. Would you feel the same if the Alligator attacked your child or grandchild?

This is Florida and where this is water there are gators . Even dogs on leashes are not real safe. Yes, they euthanize the gators. There's not a shortage of them so they aren't concerned. Relocating is not an option. I'm not a expert but I believe they would come back. There probably should be more signs here, I agree to that. Most people living or visiting here aren't from here and don't know. Stay safe ✌️
