        2 people killed by gators in 9 years, 49 people killed by humans in one night, humans are much more dangerous #DisneyGatorAttack

        So its isn't really an issue then. Leave the gators alone and stop moving to a state that is a big swamp.

        Your information is completely inaccurate @USATODAY - there were 2 deaths in the last yr. Careless reporting, twice in 2 articles.

        I also saw an article where Crocs were also found in FL. If so this is very bad news for people & pets & wildlife there.

        we must institute better "Alligator Control" laws to keep them out of the hands of people who shouldn't have them.

        Damage Control for #Disney? How much advertisement fees do you collect? How about reporting Condolences & No Gators Signs? #Shame!
