Gator Land, 2 people have eaten there over the years... Trivia: Fla Worker's permit for teens under 18 used to say on the back, No Snake Pit Work or Aligator Wrestling...
Recently saw a video where a huge alligator started chasing a golf car. Its scary!
Florida - the swamp of alligators, crocodiles, pythons and other nasty creatures. Perhaps not everywhere if you know how to choose the place.
We have a couple separate troupes of chimps in the Everglades, baboons in Silver Springs, other variations of wild monkeys in the Ocala Nat'l Forest, flesh eating bacteria and brain eating amoeba in our fresh water ponds, piranha in the St Johns River, lionfish off our oceanic coasts, great whites that regularly migrate to our waters, Nile Monitor Lizards, an exploding bear population, very mean and wild Canada Geese that refuse to leave now, Nile Crocs in the Everglades, ginormous banana spiders everywhere, and I don't know what else, even though I'm a Native Floridian. And that's just the invasive species I can think of that I've seen myself trudging the swamps and flats around FL.
So, yeah, Florida is closed people. Spread the word. We don't need any more pansy assed blue state residents moving down here and then compkai ih about the local wildlife or how "its not like this back home where I'm from." If it's so much better where you come from, then move back or STFU and quit complaining.
Btw, I've seen 12' gators scale a 6-7' wood privacy fence like it was nothing. If a gator wants a new water hole, it will find a way to it.
Not a complaint, just a tiny observation based on what I hear, that I am sure no way justifies vast variety of life. You could politely and nicely clarify rather than angry wall of text. FL is one of my favorite places to move to based on all the flora that thrives there. Obviously where the flora flourishes, fauna also follows. I think I am more scared of angry clowns like you than wild life.
Also remind you about free speech, we express what we see and feel. Secondly everyone has freedom of movement, you can't tell someone not to move or move back. It would be decided by individuals themselves. You may own a small piece of land that you can protect and nobody can rob you from that. But you can't speak for entire state, you don't own any of it to claim its yours.
Lastly what you are saying is doing the opposite to what you're intending. This post and my comment could be deterring people to move to Florida whereas your explanation about diversity of wildlife in Florida is showing people how enchanting the place is and just based on your comments I am even more inclined to move to Florida than before. So you may want to follow your own advice of STFU and just enjoy the blessed place that you are living in.
Yes, he has gators as pets, also birds. He is adjacent to a swamp so there is water everywhere. He showed me his aviary where thousands of birds roost. The place is so beautiful that locals walk the course on the regular, paying $5 for the privilege.
Once I walked away from a chance at a putt for a birdie because one of these fellows was taking a stroll across the fairway.
Don't mess with Florida.
Attach some fricken laser beams to their heads!
LOL

When I was considering relocating, one of my frens was talking about Florida. I said no. Too many pythons and gators.
I’ll take that over the swamp creatures I’m dealing with in NJ anytime.

Can't they kill them and make leather handbags, wallets, belts..import to China as a luxury brand. They'll buy them up like crazy. MAGA :)
Welcome to the Thunderdome! 😂
LOL
I'll stick with the Black Bears and Panthers of Tennessee, thank you very much.
good idea.
Can I have another direct link? There's somebody I want to send that video to over Messenger. 😀

LOL. Yes, here.
Chain link fences are easier for them. They will eat your dog, cat, or kid...
I am sure. I have big dogs but I am sure the gators can still get them.
I just got some pet geese.

Oh I cannot believe this. So funny.
Geese are nature's psyop.
Howls.
Brother owns a golf course near Tampa. Has named gators in all of the ponds. Keeps the birds on their toes.
Wow. He has gators as pets.
Yes, he has gators as pets, also birds. He is adjacent to a swamp so there is water everywhere. He showed me his aviary where thousands of birds roost. The place is so beautiful that locals walk the course on the regular, paying $5 for the privilege.
He is a brave man. LOL
