      I laugh when people think I should be scared of the alligators around here. Only time I’ve seen them, they were hauling ass away from me. :)

      No, not going to redneck into a lake full of 'em, but they’re mostly wussies, like most other wild animals.

      Crocodiles? When I first took my Filipino wife kayaking on the local swamp, “Are the crocodiles here?” “Nah, no crocodiles.”

      Crocs? Not fucking around with those boys.

        Yeah big gators will rip off your arm and can absolutely kill you… but they don’t really hunt you intentionally and will much rather be left alone. Crocs though? We’re on the menu
