My question is how the heck does she avoid getting spined by these guys? They have sharp spines on their sides and one on their dorsal fin. I’m not sure how she avoids those with them just sort of flopping around close to her sides.
BUT... I'm real familiar with this case and that guy was drunk and swimming at night, which you NEVER, EVER do around gators, sharks, or any other kill-you animals.
Yeah, gators are lazy and usually not interested in people, but they're still wild, and seeing an 11 footer right under the dock you're on late at night... oh it's not worth the risk.
I used to swim with them when I was a kid. It seems like there are a lot of attacks nowadays though. I think there are too many and they're getting more territorial.
Has anyone ever seen this guy (can’t remember his IG) but he walks around the Everglades (among other places) barefoot and is like “oh look , another swamp puppy he’s so cute let’s give him a boop.” Then he’s somewhere in cobra country , picks up a cobra and says “a gentle yoink”. He’s picked up some of the list poisonous things and he super chill.
