If people in the community are feeding the gators, it could end in tragedy. They lose their fear of people and folks forget they have brains the size of lima beans. Just enough room in them for a food/not food toggle switch.

Just one of the fun things to do and see if you live in Florida.

Who else has giant prehistoric man-eating lizards on their front porch except for Floridians.

I wasn’t expecting a black couple when I read her name.

I heard about this and saw a pic. I dismissed the story with but a chuckle.

Why?

It’s fake news having been post-processed by the msm for effect.

Case in point:

IMHO the video was NOT filmed by ‘a doorbell cam’ (certainly not hers; see for yourselves). I’m not even curious enough to know who/how the video was captured. Frankly, something smells...wake me when the alligator opens the door.

There is video of bears opening z door on youtube- a woman tells the bear “ok, now shut the door”, and it does.

Just saw story of a cassowary that was used to people due to being fed that attacked a man and put him in hospital. Thise birds can rip a person’s guts out very quickly with their claw on their foot. They are ill tempered birds too.

At one point in the news clip, there is a clear image of the gator from the side at the door. That is likely from the doorbell camera. The rest was filmed by the homeowner through the door and then outside toward the door.

That’s the first thing I thought of when I watched the video. There were two shots from outside with one from the side and one from a distance away directly at the door. There was also a cell phone video from inside through the glass and a video from someone following the gator outside. None looked like the house’s doorbell camera. Maybe the family has multiple security cameras.

They’ve been going door to door down there recently. They call themselves Jehovah Gators.

It’s Wally Gator, he’s a swinging alligator in he swamp. He’s he greatest peculator when he really starts to romp.

We don’t have a ring cam, but we do have a couple of security cameras. The main one videos from outside our house to the front walkway, the driveway, several neighbors driveways, and most of the street for a few houses.

We’ve been able to see what’s happened with packages that were missing, but said delivered. In one instance, the delivery person put a package in the mailbox, and the mailman came by 20 minutes later. Because the package was improperly placed in the actual mail box and not the paper slot, it was taken by the mailman, and returned to sender; I think with a fine or something. I’m not sure how it got resolved. It was all on my camera so at least we figured out what happened.

We’ve seen all sorts of animal activity in our yard from this camera. Possums, raccoons, and a fox have all come down our walkway as if they were humans. I guess it’s a nice path with few obstacles. The deer have never come that close to the walkway. They stay in the front yard on the other side of the walkway shrubs, thankfully.

I don’t ever expect to get an alligator or a bear over here though, and if I do, it’s definitely game warden time, and time for me to pack up and get outta Dodge.

Gators don’t have to be large, either. A 5 footer can pull a man under water and drown him. On land or water, a kid doesn’t have a chance.
