      @@teacheng3795 I'm not judging them for following their instinct they need to eat to survive. I'm just saying from a human's perspective it's very unnerving how they just casually float over to the scene of a violent crime to participate in the carnage. If a bunch of people did that you'd be unsettled.

    I recall a news story, many years ago, of a man camping perhaps 100 feet from the bank of a river (in Florida, I think). During the night, as the man was sleeping, a large alligator actually grabbed him from his tent and dragged him back to the river; a fatal attack if I remember correctly. Alligators and Crocodiles do not hunt exclusively by ambushing animals right at the edge of the water; they do indeed hunt on land sometimes. And they can run very fast.

    They jumped in and had some fun. Not seconds after they jumped in, at least 15 barracuda were in a circle just floating there, watching them.
    “Let us know if any fish come up to us!”

    This is some really cool footage that we all can learn from. I've been all around gators since 1969 from bass fishing all over central Florida, I thought I'd pretty much seen it all IN THE WILD. I thought "every gator in the area" would be attracted to a kill or food only inside the gator farms we have. We even had 2 giant 11 footers that looked like twins & hung out in the cove of the S.E. spillway of Farm 13 ( Stick Marsh ), and would harass our shiner rigs & even try to grab the bass you're trying to get in the boat......I'm talking 2 true man-eaters that had NO fear. Grab your hand, arm, or fall overboard, it would be all over in seconds. FWC officers told me their hands were tied because "they weren't a threat inside a residential area". They were the only 2 gators that were a true danger in the entire reservoir, that I knew of. I remedied the situation myself, a CO2 powered pellet pistol: pop em on the snout, they didn't like that & would leave. But they would still try again on following trips out. Thankfully, they were finally harvested after a couple years by hunters with gator tags being issued for the entire lake. But this is the first time I've ever seen every doggone gator in the area immediately come prowling to a single opportunity......again: in the wild. Amazing & food for thought: If 1 gator does decide to go after us, our kid, or pet..........it's scary to know many more could come prowling....and rather quickly.

    Finally, a good video without people acting like the gator is a monster for needed to feed itself 🙏 I love videos like this. A calm, understanding of life.

    "Dinner bell" was the scariest part. Trichinosis took out half of them over the next few days.

    Love the way the camera zooms in from a distance on many of these type videos and the picture is still clear and of good quality, but Bigfoot is always blurry. 😄

    Great video, it told a story. I never saw a gator hunt and catch it's prey on land, and then drag it back to the water. And then all the gators around start swimming over to steal the catch. It looked like the gator swam away with the pig before the others could reach him and I don't think they saw that, they did not change course to intercept. Clever gator.
