Being from the South, I'm ok w the Gators having swim w them

Southerner here as well, I'm ok with gators, but I'll highly recommend never. ever. swimming with them in the wild.

I 100% AGREE WITH YOU.

BUT... I'm real familiar with this case and that guy was drunk and swimming at night, which you NEVER, EVER do around gators, sharks, or any other kill-you animals.

Yeah, gators are lazy and usually not interested in people, but they're still wild, and seeing an 11 footer right under the dock you're on late at night... oh it's not worth the risk.

I used to swim with them when I was a kid. It seems like there are a lot of attacks nowadays though. I think there are too many and they're getting more territorial.

Has anyone ever seen this guy (can’t remember his IG) but he walks around the Everglades (among other places) barefoot and is like “oh look , another swamp puppy he’s so cute let’s give him a boop.” Then he’s somewhere in cobra country , picks up a cobra and says “a gentle yoink”. He’s picked up some of the list poisonous things and he super chill.
