Description
This is the reason for the "No Swimming Signs" you see at lakes and in the Everglades in Florida. Attacks are rare as most people are afraid of alligators and respect the warning signs. It is a Misdemeanor in Florida to "Feed or Molest Alligators" with a $500.00 fine.
This guy's belly is full, and he is resting after his last meal. Alligators are Dangerous wildlife animals that cannot be trained, they have powerful jaws with 80 teeth and a tail that can break both your legs with one swat.

Fabulous image but not something I would want to run across...

Thank you, Karen!! They are much safer to deal with on land as they have difficulty turning.
