Glad we don't have to worry about this in NC. Well at least not now.

One of the perks of surveying in Florida is getting up-close and personal with the natives!

I have done a fair share in carteret county. Luckily no gators were a factor but there were plenty of cotton mouths to deal with.

Some idiot college boys I once knew went to Florida for Christmas break. They brought back to NC a baby alligator. The gator seemed slugg8sh. Having passed freshman biology, one of them knew that gators are cold-blooded and that the 30 degree air was probably making him lethargic. So they ran some hot water in a pot and dumped the gator in it, which more or less instantly killed him.

Now the problem was disposal. So they took the dead gator to one of the bathrooms, stuffed his tail down a toilet, pulled his head up and opened his mouth. Lots of screams and fleeing the bathroom all night as other sleepy geniuses answered calls of nature.

But the loudest and fastest of them all was the custodian who, half awake, opened the lid to clean the toilet.

You can find a gator in almost every retention pond in Wilmington, up and down the rivers and creeks, and even on the beach at times. If you do any work in SE NC you better keep your eyes opened. They're definitely out there.

I saw approx. 7-8 gators earlier this week on a site. Average length was 6'.....

I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you...

The population in the Flint River has recovered quite well.
