Wow, I can't imagine seeing a gator up close and personal like that. Closest I've ever been was in zoos. I can tell you I wouldn't be anywhere near it if I did see one out in the open. I love all creatures but I'll love him from a distance! Although I do have a track record of being pretty oblivious of my surroundings so I'd probably trip over him before I realized it was there but once I did you'd see how fast I can move!

My thought is you wouldn't be moving but you would be teleporting. Basically we wouldn't even see your transition from point a to point b. It would be so fast. The good news is gators don't like to teleport. They are too lazy. So you have a great chance of surviving just teleporting. "Beam me over Scotty!!"

@Philly

You forgot a major predator in your area BEaRs!:eek: and wayward goats! They are the worst of them all. Tee hee:p I have also heard that the worst preditor in Finland is the Vampire Guinea Piggy. ROFLOL @h1m3.

Can you tell this was a rough day? LOL

Not as far south as I am, maybe if you go up to thunder bay you'd see some
 
Never under estimate the migration of a bear from a northern region to a southern region. Also wayward goats have the ability to be invisible so, you wouldn't know if you had one on your roof or not. lol I will send you a Texas Gator. I have been to your neck of the woods by the way.
 
Lol sure we have some nasty vampire guines pigs ;) maybe you need to send me some baby gators @tulagirl so I can add them to our wildlife. Ofc I need to mutated them so they can survive the winter. Gators with polar bear fur! :D They would eat our vampire guinea piggies :O

Worst animal threat I'm aware of in my area are spiders, snakes or cayote. Rairly have any incidents. Possibly a stray or mean dog.
 
Yea dogs really can be a problem especially when you take your dogs for a walk. My dog was attacked by a dog that a woman was walking. She basically just let go of his leash and here he comes after my little dog. I was so mad I told her to go to dog obedience school and get control over her animal. I was right in front of my house. Both of us could have been killed.
 
A few years ago there was an incident with a dog attacking a small boy about 1 1/2 hours from us. Been quiet since then. Also a few years back our elderly next door neighbor woman almost died from a brown recluse spider bite. Oh, and I heard about a cayote snatching up a small pet dog, it may've been my cousin's dog. *rolls his eyes* I get forgetful since I turned 40. LOL Other than those things it's usually pretty quiet in Indiana, animal wise.
 
@Skygleamshine
I know right? Especially with what happened in McKinney.... no words u_u

But on the other hand, I honestly didn't know we had gators o_O I'm too used to living in the city ^^"
 
Younmay have them even in city waterways if you have lakes and rivers around.

I'll say now what I said before, its sucky that we've gone so far into their territory that we have occurrences like this, where they have to come strolling across parks and driveways and will likely end up getting shot as an intrusion of dangerous wildlife even though we as a species are more a danger to them and have enough awareness to try and preserve their homes too. :( It makes me sad

I'm constantly perplexed by people who move out here to the Styx then complain about the wildlife. This is their home, we have to cohabitate. Fortunately those people typically leave pretty quickly. They don't need to live out here among the critters if they're such pansies they get the vapours when they see a skunk walk by.

I'm stunned at how dumb people are. I was removing a cottonmouth from a woman's pool once and she wanted me to let her son pet it. I told her, "NO! the snake is venomous". She said, "So what does that mean really?" It means you shouldn't have bred, dumb lady. Ugh.
 
@evilbunnyfoofoo LOL that story is hilarious and sad at the same time

Peope are just so stupid they really have come far from nature. I worked in one garden company and motsly people would ask what to do with their little plants.. Well you might want to put them into the soil and give them some water... People didn't even realize that or they complained that all the flowers didn't open at the same time. Like flowers really open just the same second or when you just snap your fingers.. -.- sigh

Your serious Foofoo? How does someone not know what the word venomous means?:blink:

We all get vapors when skunks walk by and sadly not the floral kind. Your name is a lie Flower. Lol

We live in a suburban area the most dangerous animal I've seen are black widows and I am such a shrieky, girly pansy. I make other people kill them for me.
 
Ugh, speaking of skunks... my previous dog, Muffy, was sprayed by one she evidently messed with. The poor little thing was so miserable. We really felt bad for her.:(
 
Skunk musk is technically a bio weapon, let's face it. It makes a little guy like a skunk able to walk by the fiercest of predators without being mauled. Problem with dogs is they are domesticated and they've forgotten that. So they go right in there all gung ho and run off stinkin' and screaming.

I'm glad to have never been sprayed. Once I was in the woods at night behind the house. A little black and white furry critter came right up to me so I pet it, thinking it was one of the cats. Then I realised the fur consistency was NOT that of a cat, and I was being cozy with a skunk! I froze and he just went on his way when I stopped petting him. I lucked out.

I had a skunk for a pet for years and while he never sprayed, one of his poots could literally tear you up. He was a stinky pants, that Otis R Stinkmeyer. I miss him horribly. He was my cuddlebug.
 
Thanks! The "P was short for "Peeeeeyew!" I raised him from a baby! He was mama's little stink-machine. I had him in the freezer, intending to have him stuffed (I know that's weird, but I loved him so I wanted to have him with me always). When the storm knocked out the power the freezer went, he started immediately getting stinky (why I don't know, he was still frozen stiff) and it was do or die, so Action Hank and I buried him near the house. It was like losing him all over again and I wept like a schoolgirl. Poor ol' Stinkmeyer. His memory will smell on I guess.
 
Foofoo you should have told them this
Some people don't know the difference between poison and venom. People ask if my spider is "poisonous" and I'm like, "No, she's venomous"
(For future reference, poison is ingested like a dart frog or inedible mushroom. Venom is injected like a spider bite or bee sting)
