there are approx. 1 million alligators in florida. even though killing them is regulated, there are exceptions to the rule...all nuisance 'gators of 8 feet or more are removed by fish and game, or killed. nuisance 'gators are those in very populated areas who are eating the local poodles. people endanger alligators by feeding them. then they associate people with food. we haven't had rain for at least two months. the everglades are dry, and they are coming into canals where people live. i don't believe in the random killing of any animal, but this young woman should not have had to die.
