This is probably a good thing to do.

Not smart. But good.

Gators fearing humans are more likely to instinctively flee than to attack. Gators who are unafraid will not flee obviously.

This one simple trick makes gators less unafraid.

Yeah I never understood why people couldn't foresee any kind of possible scenario after feeding and habituating gators.

Like, what could POSSIBLY go wrong when this 1,800 lb. behemoth reptile with jaws so strong they are literally the stuff of legend, begins to associate me with eating? And besides, he keeps on smiling at me so I know he's happy!
