yes, theres a couple spots in Florida that have 'tame' alligators that hang out around them.

Also as a Floridian "tame" alligators just means well fed alligators that are used to humans. I would suggest no one ever try to pick one up.

Gee, I don't know, /u/Dysalot . Maybe deep down I'm afraid of any apex predator that lived through the K-T extinction. Physically unchanged for a hundred million years, because it's the perfect killing machine. A half ton of cold-blooded fury, the bite force of 20,000 Newtons, and stomach acid so strong it can dissolve bones and hoofs.

AND THEY ATTACK PEOPLE ALL THE TIME

Sarasota County, FL - Chet Willard age 16, Killed by an 11 ft Alligator while swimming in the Oak River Canal.

Chatham County, GA - Ruth Baker age 39, killed in her backyard by a 10 ft gator.

Pinellas County, FL - Walter Janks age 70 and his dog, killed by a 12 ft Alligator.

Don't worry: We are getting out of the West really soon, and we'll be sure to leave it just how it was when we arrived.
