We have several Man-made lakes around our cities. At least two lakes close by the state university.
We saw an alligator in one of manmade lakes, the size about 6 feet (2 meter) length or may be more.
Actually, it natural to see alligator in nature in our state. Just to let you know, the greatest number of Alligators in the states:
- Louisiana is about 2 million.
- Florida is around 1.3 million.
However, it is dangerous that Man-made Lakes in residential areas are not "natural" habitats for apex predators.
Wildlife and Fisheries will come out and relocate the gator to another less populated location where there aren’t people jogging and walking pets.
What do you think?

Incredible how wildlife adapts to new habitats, even man-made ones. Hopefully the alligator finds a safer home.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad they come out and relocate them to the wild. It's dangerous to have them in this little lakes and ponds. But yes...we have lots of gators here in this part of FL too!
