Statistically it's a non issue. In Florida there were a total of 9 attacks in 2005. There are 20,000,000 people. The general population had a 1 in 2.222 Million chance of being attacked, and not all attack victims die. Statically, you won't die from being eaten by a gator. First of all they are scared of adult humans. Probably "Alligator"'s kids would be more likely to be injured on a 4 wheeler on the farm, or a stray bullet.

Still, I would just shoot them to watch them sink, like a turtle. I like shooting critters.
Ah but statitics can be deceiving. How many of those people live in areas where there are gators ie. rural areas with gator habitat? Additionally how many of those people even go to areas where they're are gators? That eliminates a good number of those 20,000,000 people.
Last time I was on Bass in the Stick Marsh, I'd say, only 1 of 20,000,000 was eliminated. The other 19,999,999 were right beside me. \:\( :p

It's just the low water conditions period. Cecil is right. Nothing that a hurricane won't fix. \:D

I think from 88 til now they had something less than 10 deaths.

It is interesting though, David. 3 in a week.
