In the spirit of weighing the pros and the cons………What is the upside to allowing gators to fill up our reservoirs like Lake Martin??.....What is worth us risking ours and our dogs lives in order to just be able to use the waters of our state for recreation?......Is it so that the gar populations are better managed??
I’m just simply asking about a place like FL for instance, where everybody should know gators could be in any body of water, what steps do you suggest to eliminate the possibility of an attack. If 2-3 a year are too many, what is your solution?
