>Because of the gator’s aggressive behavior and the trauma observed on Riggins’ body, deputies called a Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission trapper for help. The gator was ultimately captured and euthanized, the agency said.

I hate this shit. Why punish a wild animal for being a wild animal?

Taste of human flesh can sometimes mean they are far more likely to strike out again without provocation. Makes then more of a risk.

He was a good gator and dindu nuffin!

They gain a taste for human flesh and start targeting people. Not even kidding.

It's not a "taste" for human flesh, it's the realization that they *are* food.

It ain't gonna leave its turf to "sate its hunger for sweet human flesh", it is however no longer going to ignore the dumb fatty snacks bumbling about its territory thinking they are the top of the food chain.

I don't think a croc doesn't know it can eat a human, it just doesn't try because it knows a human would pose a threat. Animals always prefer the easy snack.
You think the animal just accidentally eats a human and then realizes that we are edible?
That's stupid.

Dont mind me, im just here for thedubs
