Default Gator Eats Drone
Flying a drone in for a close up of an alligator might get you a cool shot, but it might be the last thing your drone ever sees...

Throw the hysterical women in as a pudding, and an apology for burning its mouth!

I never understand why people think it's funny to harass animals.

Hope the alligator wasn’t hurt after all that. People can be so selfish.

That burning lithium battery probably killed the gator. Wonder what FWC would say about that?

They are probably trying to identify the drone owner and people involved so that they can give them a hefty and well deserved fine of around $5000.

That gator is probably dead. Ridiculous way to entertain oneself.

The gator looked like it was going to survive.
It almost looks like there was some kind of smoke bomb on the drone.
This was definitely done intentionally.
They know who the responsible parties are and they will probably get a hefty fine.
