Keeping Out of the By Jeanne Murphy, Park Naturalist E We must remember that the alligator is a fabulo us and efficient predator. Because of this, the reptile has changed very little in the past 150 million years back before dinosaurs roamed the Earth. Over time, the alligator has perfected its hunting techniques. The alligator moves slowly, unnoticed, towards its prey. It lunges, grabs, and drowns its meal in swift motions that are finished as quickly as they started. Alligators are a natural and beautiful part of Florida life. They belong here more than you and I do! Please be tolerant of them. We need to live together and be respectful of them; they are environmentally important and necessary. Be alert! Use your common sense, your brain, your ears, and your eyes. Think before you get in the water or walk around the edge. Look before you step-alligators are often difficult to notice. NEVER, EVER, EVER feed alligators.

Yet scientists know surprisingly little about Carcharodon carcharias. To map their movements and chart a course for the protection of great whites, one research team is getting up close and personal with the sea's top predator. Bonfil's capture technique includes a heart-pumping face-to-face meeting with the king of the ocean food chain. "It's a potentially dangerous situation, but we try to minimize the risk for both the scientists and the sharks," Bonfil said. "We don't want to kill a shark by mistake while studying it. Accidents can happen, so we're careful to work on nice flat water without risking more than we should." Great white sharks can grow up to 20 feet (6 meters) long and weigh up to 5,000 pounds (2,270 kilograms).

Contact Us Front Page Earth Pulse Controlled Alligator Harvest an Effective Conservation Tool, Louisiana Says By Hillary Mayell for National Geographic October 22, 2001 You wander through a store or flip through magazine pages and see a gorgeous alligator bag, pair of shoes, or belt. Being the good environmentalist that you are, you don't buy, because alligators are an endangered species. Aren't they? "No," Ruth Elsey, a wildlife biologist at the state-administered Rockefeller Wildlife Refuge in Louisiana, said emphatically. "That's the biggest misconception people have, and one that we're constantly battling. Alligators are not endangered. "There's a bumper sticker down here that says, 'If you want to save an alligator, buy a handbag,' and that's completely true," said Elsey. "We wish we could get people to understand that." Louisiana's innovative Alligator Marsh to Market program is an effective conservation tool, state conservation officers say. It protects alligator populations and preserves critical wetlands habitats while providing about U.S. $54 million of economic benefits to the state each year.

67. PERC Reports September 1999 In wildlife Management Crocodiles and alligators, ed. GJW Webb, SC Manolis, andPJ Whitehead. Chipping Norton, New South Wales, Australia Surrey, http://www.perc.org/publications/percreports/sept1999/hunting.php

Harvesting Alligators by Robert A. Thomas Alligators have long been important to Louisianans for their skins (for belts, shoes, boots, luggage, watch bands, etc.), meat (sauce picante, gumbo, sausage, etc.), and, since the advent of nature-based tourism, as a magnet that draws visitors to the swamps. They have played a major role in our culture: We wear them, we eat them, and we are fascinated by watching them. In the 1960s, alligator populations were declining throughout the state, partly due to habitat loss but mostly due to hunting. The slaughter continued even after alligator hunting was outlawed in Louisiana in 1962 and alligators were officially protected under the 1967 federal Endangered Species Act (the act that preceded today's federal act). Fortunately, during the 1960s the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries quietly laid a foundation for management of alligators based on scientific data about the species. From that foundation, the state of Louisiana developed a management program that allows alligator harvest. The result has been not a decline but, rather, a proliferation of healthy alligator populations. While the species does remain listed under the Endangered Species Act, it is in the category of "threatened due to similarity of appearance" (meaning that alligator hides are so similar to other imperiled species of crocodilians that customs officials would have difficulty differentiating them). Today's Louisiana program illustrates the ability of states to manage protected species and the role that harvesting can play.

Sun, September 18, 2005 Home Sports Classifieds Charlotte News ... Venice News Sanibel gets tougher on alligator policy More alligators living on Sanibel may be relocated or killed after the city council changed its alligator policy this week in reaction to a deadly attack last month. Residents packed into the city's arts building Tuesday as city leaders made policy changes prompted by Sanibel resident Janie Melsek's death. She died July 23, two days after she was dragged into a pond by an alligator that attacked her while she was trimming trees nearby. "We really feel that the status quo is not an option at this time," said Bob Loflin, Sanibel's natural resources director. Local police and alligator trappers now will relocate alligators deemed non-nuisances that are smaller than 4 feet long and destroy nuisance alligators larger than 4 feet. Until Tuesday, Sanibel maintained a policy of relocating non-nuisance gators smaller than 8 feet long, a deviation from the state's more conservative policy. Sanibel's former policy was more liberal than the state's because of a special exception granted to the island.

Biologists told the Game and Fish commissioners that the outlook is better for antelope and elk, but also said that small game reproduction potential is looking tremendous thanks to a wet winter and spring. "The quail reproduction should be excellent. We are expecting a great quail year," said Game Branch Chief Leonard Ordway. Department officials note that there are significant changes to the draw this year that applicants need to know. One of the biggest changes is that the online application process has been suspended, and a manual system with paper applications is the only way to apply. Regulations and applications will be available from azgfd.gov in downloadable PDF format on May 2. Printed paper copies will be available at all department offices and license dealers around May 20.

Furthermore, the American alligator potentially plays an important role in shaping the ecology of seasonally inundated ponds at Ichauway. Alligators excavate subterranean burrows within the pond basins, thus affecting hydroperiod, and possibly providing refugia for other aquatic vertebrates in times of drought. In addition, alligators may be important predators on small vertebrates that inhabit the ponds including salamanders, larval and adult anurans, and turtles. However, the level of predation and extent to which it affects populations of these species is not known. In addition to conducting systematic surveys of the inland alligator population at Ichauway we ultimately intend to address questions related to the role of alligators in the ecology of seasonal ponds. Research in progress, publications forthcoming.

WILDLIFE The alligators of Ferndale by Lisa Ladd-Wilson It's hard to say exactly when the Department of Fish and Game knew it had an unusual case on its hands. Was it in mid-November, when an anonymous caller contacted CalTIP Californians Turn In Poachers and reported two alligators living in Ferndale? Or was it when Fish and Game wardens discovered the alligators were owned by a 77-year-old grandmother of 30? Patrol Lt. Jerry Collins wasn't one of those wardens, but he soon became involved with Verdie Stone and her alligators. And what started as a pre-Thanksgiving confiscation turned into a holiday season shopping trip, with two toothy gifts looking for a home. Collins has seized his share of illegally kept animals in his 23 years with Fish and Game, and there were a few things that flagged this case as different. For one thing, the alligators, nearing 3 feet in length, weren't abused or ill, as are many of the exotic-animals-as-conversation-pieces that Collins sees. "They seem to be healthy," Collins said over the phone. For another, the perpetrator was a very nice great-grandmother who calls just about everyone "dear" or "darling" and loves to tell stories especially stories about growing up in Tulsa, Okla., where she spent her girlhood collecting snakes, small mammals and lizards that folks in those parts call "mountain boomers."
