Never, ever feed an alligator. Most problem gators have been fed, which causes them to lose their fear of people. In Florida, feeding alligators is against state law -- and is punishable by 60 days in jail and a $500 fine.
When in alligator habitat, stay alert, particularly at key feeding times near dawn and dusk. Don't swim or wade if possible. If you have to, be sure to scan the water carefully for lurking gators. They can look like logs floating just under the surface.
Don't clean fish or feed ducks in gator habitat. The free meals can attract alligators.
Keep small children and dogs away from the water's edge. Alligators eat small prey, and nearly half of all known human fatalities were children under the age of 12.
When boating, don't dangle arms or legs in the water.
Stay at least 35 feet from an alligator on land. They can move quickly.
Don't disturb babies or nests, which look like big mounds. Mother alligators closely guard their nests.
