Things this video proves-
1) Florida attractions ARE more exciting than California's. Imagine if that Gator was in Storybookland?!
2) Wearing a pin lanyard detracts from your badness even if you ARE fighting off a potential Killer.....
3) Jaws theme is very appropriately used here :bruce:
4) Alligator Wrangling is NOT taught in Traditions......

they should have went 101 and wait for fwc

It's possible that he was trying to keep it away while they were cycling out, though some how I doubt the managers wanted to stop the ride on a count of they would get lower guest counts

At any rate, that's really bad show to have a guy hitting a gator with a picker, and standing right next to the boats as they go by while texting. (yes, I know it's probably a company phone, but do guests know that?)

I lived in Florida most of my life and never heard that.

I'd be willing to bet he was probably trying to keep it occupied in a non-ride area to avoid an E-Stop, considering you probably can't unload with that thing floating around in the water like normal. All while waiting for someone from either the state of in-house animal services to show up to remove it. Granted, I never worked in MK so I'm just taking a while guess. ;)

by neightbor use to be florida fish and wildlife comission (fwc) that come stright from him plus they are endranged

372.0725 Killing or wounding of any species designated as endangered, threatened, or of special concern; criminal penalties.--It is unlawful for a person to intentionally kill or wound any fish or wildlife of a species designated by the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission as endangered, threatened, or of special concern, or to intentionally destroy the eggs or nest of any such fish or wildlife,

Gators are no longer on the endangered list, we even have a hunting season for them. Generally speaking one is not allowed to harass wildlife, protected or not.

That was a tiny gator, less than four foot long. It is my understanding that WDW will usually call animal control to have any gators they find removed from the property. I bet Gatorland would have come to remove it for free and they are only about 20 minutes away from WDW.

i have been to florida since 1999 so im surprise
if i remember right after 5-8ft they have to be put down due to homing instinct
