“Gators need killin’.”
I can attest to that as long as we humans get killed also. The gators have been living in the waters of Florida for over a million years, long before humans entered their area. They have been eating anything careless enough to get next to the waters for about the same time. So, was anyone killed for going into their domain and now complaining about the way it works there? No the gators are called guilty for just being gators. We complain about immigrants coming into this country and trying to change the way we live. Same/same.
It equates to going into the ocean, wearing a wet suit dark in color, swimming in deeper water, and wondering why they were shark bit when they look like a seal. (Shark week)
They walked into the dark alley.

Nope.
That kind of thinking puts gators as equal value with humans.
Good stewards might not wipe out gators but certainly should control their numbers.
