"If it's a Florida body of water, it can hold an alligator. Swamps, ponds, ditches, creeks, rivers, swimming pools, stormwater drains, wetlands that are here today and gone tomorrow — all can have gators."

 

Kent Vliet, University of Florida, Zoology Professor

 

Even after living in Florida for more than two decades, I still find this fact startling. You could walk or swim anywhere in the UK and not worry about whether the local wildlife is going to sever an artery. It's just so much less bite-y over there.
