Ive been fortunate, all the places ive hunted the gators had all been "re-homed" prior to me hunting there. Ashley your right though, i remember swimmin and canoeing with them rhings as a kid but now? NO FREAKIN WAY!!! My kid dont seem scared o them though, we saw one at the zoo and he wanted to climb the fence and grav it

. No idea where he gets it.
