Not off hand. But as a fan of these stories I can tell you that the alligator attack stories will peak in May and June - the middle and end of mating season.

Here's two good ones from 2002:

Father Saves Daughter In Alligator Attack - Man Gouged Gator's Eye

Six-Foot Alligator Nabbed; Neighborhood Dog Missing

Shark bite stories were big two years ago, a bust last year. A few weeks ago the stories picked up in Florida, but petered out.

"There have been about 300 alligator attacks in Florida since the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission began keeping records in 1948. Officials said that 12 of the attacks were fatal."

This was the last paragraph in your first link.
