My DH shrunk the picture.

I though someone say WDW had moved him....

 

[Dizzy4Dizney]

Well, he's BAAAAACK!

 

[smvdelv]

We saw him the day that "Charley" came for a visit, but then we never saw him again!!!

 

[TOMAR@SSR]

We saw him on Aug. 10th, then we heard that he was moved also. Thanks for the pix,

 

[Desperado]

Seems he's big enough to be moved. Seems like a dangerous place for him to live.

There were 3 gators visiting the canal at the BCV. One was already "removed". Now there are 2.

 

[Quadman]

We were staying at the BWV during Charley and we saw the gator being removed (at least thats what we think was going on...). So it sounds likely that there were more than one...........

 

[JoeThaNo1Stunna]

He looks cool.

I think, that like rabbits or mice, there is never just 'one' alligator in the waters around WDW!! Wonder which one we'll see at Thanksgiving.

 

[zurgswife]

I vote more then one gator...

 

[donald...really]

Wow. Very impressive. Thanks for the picture.

 

[Stimpy]

Yea for the Alligator!! I love how they always look like they're smiling for the camera!

I would think WDW could get a permit to remove the gator even though it is undersized. Seems like he would be a significant safety risk.

How big was this one? I keep looking for one in the canal near OKW, because it looks like a perfect place for them, but have never seen one there yet. I know they have to be a certain size before they are removed.

Dizzy4Dizney, I know this wasn't the topic, but did you make your countdown to Disney chart? If not, where did you find it?!?

 

[Dizzy4Dizney]

Hi,
Yes, I made the countdown calendar. If you PM your e-mail address, I will send the directions on how I made it. A lot of people asked me about it so I wrote down how I did it.

DD loved it!

My wife & I took a tour with a National Park Ranger at Shark Valley (part of the Everglades) about 25 miles west of Miami off Rt 41. The ranger took an alligator count and counted about 260 alligators on our 2 hour tour. While walking the paths you can easily walk right up to alligators. The park ranger said in the last 20 years there has only been one person bitten by the alligators and that was after the person tripped and fell on the alligator. apparently they aren't usually a "real" hazard unless provoked, startled or fed by humans.
