ricojes Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 (edited) And no, you can't blame a family on vacation from Nebraska. Absolutely not! these type of stories hit me 10 times harder now that i have a 3 year old. The pain the family must be experiencing is beyond comprehension. Plus the idiots blaming the parents isn't helping...should have done this, should have done that...just awful... This lady is an Orlando resident and didn't think anything of letting a 3 year old play on that same beach. If he would have ran to the water, there's no way to catch him. https://www.yahoo.com/gma/orlando-nurse-posts-pic-grandson-beach-where-gator-200208496--abc-news-topstories.html And this picture taken an hour before the attack in the same area: https://www.yahoo.com/news/disney-routinely-removes-alligators-beach-193037491.html And this family was luckily warned by someone: https://www.yahoo.com/celebrity/could-us-parents-recount-spotting-130006804.html Edited June 17, 2016 by ricojes
DC Tom Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 That looks like a dinosaur. It effectively is. The basic "crocodilia" design pattern hasn't much changed in the past 100 million years.
boyst Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 you go near waters with alligators, ****'s gonna happen.
BADOLBILZ Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 Yes, I am. I was surprised that they were looking inside gators, to say the least. People still think alligators are an endangered species. Their actual status is "threatened," but in south Florida I believe they qualify as "vermin." Vermin is pretty accurate. It's hard to stay rid of them. You get rid of all the little ones and you think they are gone.......fenced off....... and then one day a big one is in the water out of nowhere. How about this recent sighting... Not that big tho. That is a significant oversight.
YoloinOhio Posted June 17, 2016 Author Posted June 17, 2016 How about this recent sighting... holy ****
GG Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 It effectively is. The basic "crocodilia" design pattern hasn't much changed in the past 100 million years. Must be the tail. Surprised they don't rule the world after 100 million years.
Just Jack Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 They're so cute when they're little http://m.imgur.com/gallery/mi229BY
DC Tom Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Must be the tail. Surprised they don't rule the world after 100 million years. Yeah, actually. They can't chew, and their digestive system is slow as hell (but thorough). The tail's structure is such that it enables crocodilians to "spin" to rip digestible chunks out of their prey. Without that tail, they couldn't eat.
dib Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 We've had a Gator in the Canal behind our house. I've eaten Gator tail on numerous occasions.

Virgil Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 I can't begin to imagine what this must be like. My daughter is 3 and I'd just be done for. And while rules are rules, a lot of places have don't swim signs. Hell, fountains have them. It's a big difference when the sign says "Gators and other deadly animals, keep the !@#$ out"
