I didn't go and fingerprint him.

'''Larry''' the alligator of The Villages fame gets new home

As a Louisiana native I have a special interest in alligators. They are delicious when cooked properly. The hides make good skins for many products. Just like cows, sheep and other animals they are farmed domestically and in the wild. Just some of natures bounty.:popcorn:

I haven't been there in a while but people feed the ducks and egrets et al at Spanish Springs all the time.

There is a small lake in a state park in the city where we lived prior to TV. Ducks and geese at the lake were fed by visitors to the park and after awhile the geese decided that it was a lot easier to live there year round instead of migrating. Free food! Due to the number of geese pooping all over the place you couldn't walk the paths around the lake or do any fishing because every step landed in poop. It also affected area water quality because the lake was spring fed and the excess water drained off into the nearby rivers. The bacteria count was through the roof. Finally the state captured the geese and moved them.

Is he the one in the pond by the nursing home st Sp Springs?

Alligator trappers have no legal access to ponds or water retention areas in TV. They are owned by the area CDD and any action requires approval from District Property Management. If you see a trap call Community Watch at 753-0550

That's the American way - its exactly what we did to Native Americans. Killed most, relocated a few.

Eat him!
 

Just eat him, the gator not he person feeding him. Then again the person feeding him should be fed to him; the gator.

Good grief!

When someone feeds wildlife, the animal associates you with food and from then on, when they see people, they think food. Not only that, it can be very dangerous depending on the animal that is being fed like a gator.
Then when the animal ( the gator) gets used to people and gets too close, it is time to kill the animal. That is not fair to the animal that is being fed by ignorant people.

We have same problem at out pond next to Palmer Cherry Hill 2nd green. Resident throws out gallons of corn/seeds and flocks show up all day to feed. BAD!

We? You might of but I didn’t!:duck:

Probably privileged golfers? :icon_wink:
