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 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.
