What happens at the end of breeding season, the younger males have flee because the older males are territorial and will eat the young ones, so the younger males follow water and eventually end up in freshwater areas they don’t belong
Thanks! Very clarifying--possibly more so than you had planned.
Why? On first reading, in the context of the "fishing-tackle-versus-gun" incident, I thought you were talking about human beings. That made perfect sense, in the context of "older males" chasing out "younger males."
Scary about the 'gators. I guess if you live down there, you pay attention to the season when you go anywhere near water!
