Originally posted by lesmore49 Nice pix. When I see an alligator such as this one, although I whine about living in a cold country (Canada) we don't have any dangerous reptiles like this. But then we do have wolves, the occasional Cougar and up north Barren Ground Grizzlies, Polar Bears, etc....and of course they can be dangerous too.
Thanks, My Friend, its a bit of a lousy photo but it was what I thought was the best display of the gator. They can be dangerous when confronted and they can cover a lot of distance really quickly. I tend to stay off of stream or lake banks where the visibility is limited especially along the water line. They are so prolific in our area that the state has a registered controlled hunt every year to thin the population along the Pearl River in central Mississippi. Wolves, Cougars, Grizzlies and Polar Bears Yikes! I guess wherever one lives there are possible dangerous animals of some sort ours happen to be snakes and reptiles. Thanks for the visit!!
