Tragic occurrence. In FL, it's perhaps best to assume (unless otherwise is clearly the case) that fresh water areas are highly likely to host gators; brackish water may conceal both gators and salt water crocs. It's borderline Jurassic Park.

Hi Doc: Not a complex issue, right? BTW: Recently a bear killed a man and his dog in Jerome, FL (Collier County) and a shark killed a swimmer in Israel for the first time: i.pinimg.com

Florida seems like a good place to go kill your spouse.

Given you posting history.. Makes perfect sense and it seems exactly like something you would do.

Does this guy offer canoe trips and tours to the public? For maybe $75,000 a passenger?

Asking for a friend.

The article says the husband tried fighting it off.

Or was his oar pushing her closer to the alligator's mouth? :-)

(Expect alligators to be in fresh water anywhere in Florida)

Even a "retarded little ray of sunshine" burns bright in the Darkness of your hate.

I've kayaked and hiked past plenty of gators in Florida. They always seem disinterested if not scared of me.
