Gator snatches 2 y/o at Disney Resort #FLLiving

Sad, but the parents should have realised how dangerous that was. The general rule down here is always assume there is a gator in any body of freshwater you encounter.
 
Florida is real af with nature bros.

check out this gator spotted a couple months ago. And its real. Reported on hella news outlets including cnn and golf.com This is a Dinosaur b





It's been a rough week for Orlando :frown:
 
while I can't see myself ever not holding my toddlers hand in public when I get kids...

Before you go too hard on the parents...peep this video of a crocodile/alligator just chilling on a golf course in Florida



**** is crazy...Florida NTers, gators and crocs just be down there cooling in public in line for snow cones and ****?

Wait...it changes things if they were ******* around in murky water that specifically said no swimming...

Damn man...
 
That damn near is the closet thing to a dinosaur. That is wild. Feel bad for the family. I know they have to be just in total shock.
 
alligators and crocodiles are so fascinating to me though. They really are mini dino's. Very interesting creatures.
 
Man....sister has been talking about going to Disney Florida with my 7 and 9 yr old nephews for a month now

I keep telling her to stay in California because its cheaper.
 
Ban alligators from entering Florida, they are great animals I have a lot of friends who are alligators and they are telling me the same thing, this has to end we have to be vigilant against alligators they are hurting us real bad we have to get tough on alligators

I have 2 issues with this though....

1.  If there really were "no swimming" signs up, what in the entire blue hell were the parents thinking?

2.  It sounds like they were in the water in the evening, so it was probably dusk or nearing dusk.  This is when alligators are most active, a.k.a. the absolute worst time to be in/around water.

tell them to take them bro. These are isolated incidents. Orlando is typically safe. You don't see or hear of gators eating children often. This is just an unfortunate event. Just tell her to wait until september. GOAT time for the parks.

We'll see. She wants to go during Christmas time so I guess that would be better climate wise.  Meanwhile, I've been telling her to settle for Universal Studios Hollywood since its only 20 minutes away.

Right. But its kind of chilly in December. It's a terrible time for the parks though because all of the kids are on vacation so their families go there at that time. Hours and hours of wait time to get on rides. The temperature is great in september and the parks are empty because the kids there go back to school in august and the rest go back after labor day, so its like a ghost town during the week. Just some thoughts to pass along.

Why is ur 2 year old in the water or near it by himself? I know plenty of parents who wouldn't let their kid go unsupervised for a second even at home
 
They weren't swimming though it says they were wading in the water probably near shore since it's a two year old not like the kid can swim. What is key if there were warnings that gators are in the water. People are quick to judge but just reading the article makes it seem they weren't doing anything crazy. Plus gators are built for these kind of attacks.

Just a unfortunate event.

Reading it again, there has never been a gator attack at this resort ever they said so it's just one of those freak things IMO. Staff probably doesn't go around giving gator warnings to guest like that since it wasn't a issue

They could have just been walking by. Gators are crazy fast on land. They didn't have to be in the water for the gator to see a mini human and decide to attack.
 
So sad man. :smh:. Feel for the lil one and family.

This is the main reason why I'll never live in Florida. Seriously. Big Snakes and Gators popping up on your lawn or pool? I'm cool on that.
 
but ive read reports the 2 yo was in a designated "play pen" area , this is wild man esp as a father.

i dont even want to think about how they feel

Same here man. I spent like 3 hours the other day reading and watching Aligator and Croc documentaries. Check this out when you have a chance. Unbeliavble that this man actually swims, lives and plays with Crocodiles.
