"This is dangerous work for the search crews as they are wading through gator and snake-infested swamps and flooded hiking and biking trails," police said.\

SARASOTA COUNTY, Fla. — The search for Gabby Petito's fiancé, Brian Laundrie, resumed Tuesday in the area he reportedly had last been, North Port police said.

He's a person of interest in Petito's disappearance amid what the department calls an FBI-led criminal investigation.

A police spokesperson says authorities will be searching for Laundrie in the Carlton Reserve where it was believed he went hiking about a week ago.

"This time, moving in from the Venice side of the area, along with adjoining lands. A weekend ground search and aerial search Monday of the 25-thousand-acre preserve has yet to yield any answers, but we must press on," spokesperson Josh Taylor said.

"Please be aware, the Carlton Reserve is a vast and unforgiving location at times. It is currently waste deep in water in many areas.

The guy in your deer cam picture has too much hair on top of his head to be Laundrie, I think.

It is currently waste deep in water in many areas.

That would be okay, if the waste was only like a Coke can or tissue. Not very deep at all.

His parents helped him escape the country...

He won’t be found for a very long time or ever.

I do not believe a kid of that age knows how to live without technology.   If he has duped the FBI and other law enforcement he won't last long.   He seems like the murder/suicide type to me.

Actually it a very interesting place.
Loads of wildlife especially birds come winter.
Huge Horned Owls,hawks and waterfoul, plenty of deer and wild boar.
Freeper Swampsniper(rip) shot all his film in the same type inviorment up around St Augustine
Its massive on both sides of I 75 and East goes out to Arcadia.
To make it sound like it all swamp is kinda off base as there are plenty of trail.
Do a Google Map Search of the Carlton Preserve.

reminds me of a bigfoot photo. Crappy enough to argue it’s anyone or anything.

Saw that, Baker Fl is a long way off by foot although it is an interesting shot.

I used to mess with the trail cams hunters put (unauthorized) on my 30 acres up North.
Make faces flip em the bird. Show them no trespassing signs telling them to take there stuff and leave or it was mine.
They would remove them

I originally thought it was an older woman who has substituted this story for her regularly scheduled soap opera, who hates NYers for some bizarre reason.
But if it’s a man- then i got nothin’.
