        Of all the recent tragedies in the news, this is by far the saddest. This should not have been allowed to happen. @BBCNews

        maybe his parents shouldn't have let him play in water that has a sign saying "no swimming" in front of it.

        @BBCNews really do you have to use that pic? We all know what alligators look like. The open jaws aren't necessary rn.

        Feel worse for the boy who couldn't read the "no swimming" signs then the parents who could and let him.

        Father was standing in the water with the boy. Don't understand why anyone would enter waters were gators are known to inhabit.

        Alligators rarely eat, when they hunt, they can store food, may have been the case here…
