A 6'8" gator in Saint Augustine.  He does a nice death roll on the street.  If you want to see what a gator does when he gets your arm/leg in its mouth that is it!

StarSo much for taking a stroll in the moonlight. 
Poor critter, just out of its natural area, wait, We have invaded its home.
 
My neighbor's son lives down around Miami , I think. Last name Hardwick. Does the animal trapping. Give me an alligator in the open rather than a very large snake under a house. Second thought, give me noneCry

Just have to remember that a gator can outrun any person.

Looking at the video , I was a little unsettled with the policeman walking that near the gatorCry
They move very fast and could do a lot of damage in a split second. Either it was further away than it seemed OR his person was letting hi Macho over rule is common sense.

I thought the same thing.  If he was as close as it looked he was being kind of dumb.
