Yrs ago I won a teip to Florida and they put us in a nice condo on a golf course. While walking one night, we saw alligators eggs right in the bushes next to the golf course. We went back to condo right away. This thing baffles me. I live in kansas and have always known alligators are in the water all over Florida. I have seen then along the side of the highway. Now you have anaconda, huge snakes and large lizards taking over. I used to want to live in Florida but no way would I now. I am no crocodile dundee. Poor lady should have known better, get her kids to mow for her.
@@coolmanjr380 Now, I never said that, and they did speak to some of her neighbors but not one person gave an explanation as to what she was doing near the water or how she fell in? So I dunno what exactly happened to her!
What happened to the older gentleman that dove in & tried to save her? I listened to the 911 call & the 911 officer was oblivious to the fact that he was most likely having a heart attack. I feel so bad for the poor lady. It must have been terrifying. I hope she was aware of the man that tried so hard to save her & found some peace in knowing he tried & she wasn't alone while dying
Remember people we have invaded thier territory, not the other way around. These prehistoric animals do two things, hunt and survive. And they do both quite efficiently.😏
Why the hell would you want to live where alligators live? Like they come out of the water especially geriatric people why the freak would they live there??? I mean you got money, I wouldn't want to live where there are alligators.
@A P and its ignorant to put your life in danger just cause its hot all year, crocodiles and alligators are aggressive violent predators (wild animals)
I was thinking the same thing . Those alligators could be out of the water chasing elderly people who are slow walkers. It makes absolutely no sence, why in the be world would you want to take a walk around the lake with huge alligators ? Why would you even want to live next to the lake full of alligators ???? I would stay a mile away from that lake. It's not like alligators can not get out of the water!!!!
Exactly. We've taken away so much natural habitat from many animals including alligators. Human beings are another food source for them. They don't attack unless they are hungry or feel they're in danger.
I feel for that poor woman. But why kill the alligators? Does that bring her back? They were doing what alligators do and I might remind that they were here first.
If an alligator is larger than a certain size, it should be removed. There should be no argument about this at all. That’s what happened when I was living in Gainesville, Florida. I guess the community is lack of funding and not doing their job enough.
I have never understood Florida’s tolerance of alligators in close proximity to populated areas. Marlene, the idea that alligators have priority over people by virtue of some “grandfather clause” is insanity. If a murderer moved into my neighborhood before me does that preclude his execution for a murder ? Murders are only doing what murders do.
@@cpcattin Because this is the Alligator’s home not humans. Removing them from their natural habitat disrupts the ecosystem. Humans are already doing that as is.
Have you ever watched the animal planet show gator boys? They worked for the county or something like that and they were dispatched to remove nuisance gators humanely. They were in peoples pools, Yards, a restaraunts decorative pond. You name it. One of them was even in the persons fenced in yard. It had climbed over the chain link fence. The guy had pictures of it. It was an awesome show. And you learn a lot about gators and Florida.
Is anyone as frustrated with this 911 operator as I am. This 70 yr old man can't breathe and she continues to ask him question about what the dead woman is the canal was wearing. Just seems like a lot of questions about someone who has passed away when the poor man is doing his best to just breath. I hope he was able to get help in time. Condolences to the family of the poor lady who drowned.
Too dangerous for elderly people to reside next to an area where live gators are present. There should be state and or local regs. to insure the safety of both humans and animals.
They didn't even mention the 70-year-old man that jumped in and tried to save her!! As he was on the phone with the 911 dispatcher, he was having trouble breathing and said he was having chest pains but, the dispatcher kept asking him more and more questions about the lady that was already descended! Sir! Sir! What was she wearing? 😳
And the 911 little girl could have 2 deaths on her hands they need to train her better this man that was trying to save the lady was having a heart attack and all she could do was ask him questions about the lady that was already dead in the canal instead of dealing with his past medical history any medications hes on something something to focus on him
Poor alligators, they did nothing wrong; just being alligators and they get removed and probably euthanized…. The lady was old, she lived a whole life. The community also knew there were alligators in the lake; it is even assumed IN FLORIDA that any body of water that is like a natural lake or the bottom can’t be seen has alligators.
@@cremebrulee4759 I agree. We are no different. Just happens we are smarter. Payback. Kill one of us, be ready for retaliation. Alligator, Lion, Shark or even another human. Am I right?
RIP TO THE WOMAN WHO WAS KILLED.🙏🏾BUT QUESTION 🙋♀️ WTF WOULD YOU LIVE AROUND ALLIGATORS 🐊 😳AND NOW THEY ARE TELLING YOU HOW TO SWIM AND COINCIDE WITH THEM SMH 🤦🏽♀️
People build houses and nature trails on cliffs also but the county is at least smart enough to put barriers and tasteful steel cable fences or railings to prevent people from getting too close to the edge. It's a golf course, I'm pretty sure they can afford it, the question is why didn't they? That was my grandmother, I'd be suing the golf course for the county!
The trapper walks around the shallow part where the gator rests sticking a pole with a rope attached into the ground. When he sticks the gator, it takes off into the pond and does it's "death roll" which is how they kill their prey. This results in it wrapping itself up in the rope. Then the trapper takes a boat to the floating, wrapped gator, grabs it and transports it to a gator "processing" facility in southern Florida. Know this because my neighbor had one get into his pond.
This is very easy to explain. If you decide to live in a community that is built near a pond or lake (or worse where man chooses to build a pond) with the full knowledge and understanding that YES.....alligators have lived (over 250 million years) , do currently live, and will continue to live in and near ponds / lakes.......well.....it is called assumption of risk. Of course it is awful what occurred. It is a tragic way to die. What is also a tragedy is: the community resident interviewed actually says "an aggressive alligator!" This is ignorance at its highest level. Many people who choose to live in these types of communities LIKE the fact that gators are in these ponds / lakes. Its simple: Dont touch the flame if you want to avoid getting burned.
Let me help you “journalist” out with your question of “How did this happen?” Frail old lady lives by an alligator pond. She fell in and the alligators do what alligators do.
they aren't sure if the alligators was involved and they don't plan on removing them!?!?.......what do they think mangled the body? ....could have been those sharks huh.
Someone e needs to get over there and remove those gators to another location or have it fenced off. I heard the recording of the 911 call. It was devestating!
@@ScarrednCharred so what they were there first. Now humans are there and they should all be killed. We are the top of the food chain. If your child ( I'm sure a loser like you doesn't have one ) had got eaten I doubt the same stupid comment would have come out of your disgusting pie hole.
Are they going to book those two alligators into the system? They were probably poor and had their food stamps taken away and when you get two roaming together, watch out!
Jesus Christ called people everywhere to repent, therefore, if you confess with your lips the Lord Jesus and believe with all your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved and inherit the Kingdom of Heaven and eternal life. told other people how good he is, how he saves, heals and liberates and gives eternal life
Pray for the lost. Tomorrow is never guaranteed. Today is the day of salvation...saddly, we know there will be those who will reject Christ to the very end...shaking their fist at the Almighty...defiant onto the end. Thank you LORD Jesus for taking my sins away. God bless 🙏
All these condolences and tragic rhetoric are so generic. A week from now no will care or remember. Everyone moves on. So why care to begin with? Shit happens
How about the man that tried to save her. He was having a heartache after trying to safe her.
Aggressive alligator???? Please they are wild reptiles. There is no such thing as a non agrressive alligator.
Exactly!!!!
Maybe they identify as passive lol
@Ann Montgomery when they're hungry they're going to eat whatever they can find. People act like it's deliberate attack on humans, and it's not.
She’s white?
just get rid of all alligators in the area? not that hard.
I don't know why anyone would have a golf course where there is alligators,let alone live by them!

obviously was pushed in

@@Chgojerr Maybe she has dementia and didn't understand the danger.
Maybe she was feeding them or suspicious of something.
Exactly how did she fall into a pond unbelievable?
Please show me a non aggressive alligator for I have never seen one.
That settles it. My mom is not moving down to Florida.
What happened to the older gentleman that dove in & tried to save her? I listened to the 911 call & the 911 officer was oblivious to the fact that he was most likely having a heart attack. I feel so bad for the poor lady. It must have been terrifying. I hope she was aware of the man that tried so hard to save her & found some peace in knowing he tried & she wasn't alone while dying
I know she was not thinking of the man, while the alligators were chewing on her and killing her.
Poor Lady. May she rest in Heavenly Paradise!😔💖
How extremely sad and tragic. I pray she’s in the presence of Almighty God.
Well, what's left of her anyways.
I agree whole heartedly! 🙏 RIP!

You so right I would never never live near alligator
Exactly Agree!!!
There must be a million golf balls in the pond.
What do you guys expect? when you Expand into the wild animal territory I mean I’m sorry that she lost her
Exactly. We've taken away so much natural habitat from many animals including alligators. Human beings are another food source for them. They don't attack unless they are hungry or feel they're in danger.

To hell with them gators
I pray she was ready spiritually.
Jesus help her family and friends
My goodness! Rest In Paradise, Beautiful🥀🥀🥀
Condolences to all who love her❤️
So tragic. Such a quiet community where everyone knows everyone. Hate to see stories like this!
🤣
This the type of copy and paste comment
What does that have to do with the nature of the Alligators ??? . The alligators aren't breaking into homes and raping Women !!!.
I feel for that poor woman. But why kill the alligators? Does that bring her back? They were doing what alligators do and I might remind that they were here first.
Alligators aren't endangered, and much like dogs have to be put down if they consume human flesh

They’ve been in Florida and the area for 8 million years. Wild.
HELLO, stop feeding them!!!
These golf courses should NOT BE PUT NEXT TO CANALS IN FLORIDA or other coastal regions !!
Why no barriers around a lake with alligators so close to a residential area?
There r gators in every body of water in florida
Alligators can climb fences too.
@@ScarrednCharred people can't fall through fences.

What about for dogs?
Regulations? In Florida??
🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
This is so horrible. Poor lady.
Damn! What a way to go!
God BLESS her SOUL
When did this dispatcher actually call for medical help for this man?
Your FWC Alligator Hotline has a typo. The last 4 digits are x4286. Do you need a proofreader? I'm available for hire.
May her memory be a blessing 😔
What happened to the man who was attacked and called 911. Is he dead???
They didn't even mention the 70-year-old man that jumped in and tried to save her!! As he was on the phone with the 911 dispatcher, he was having trouble breathing and said he was having chest pains but, the dispatcher kept asking him more and more questions about the lady that was already descended!
Sir! Sir! What was she wearing? 😳
Exactly!! ridiculous questions asked
Did she actually start ambulance to help? His breathing alone was an alert for need for help!
@@SS11660 Exactly!
Why was there no investigation into the dispatcher?
Some type of suitable fence or border or protective border should be invested into to prevent such accidents
That'll ruin the aesthetic of their neighborhood.
And the 911 little girl could have 2 deaths on her hands they need to train her better this man that was trying to save the lady was having a heart attack and all she could do was ask him questions about the lady that was already dead in the canal instead of dealing with his past medical history any medications hes on something something to focus on him

these emoji’s..
Florida is full of alligators, so why don't people know this, especially around lakes??
No one should have even been that crazy to have a home near that place 😳
Yes much better to have a home in LA and get beaten over the head by homeless drug addicts
My community is exactly this but there are signs everywhere for aware of “gators”
People build houses and nature trails on cliffs also but the county is at least smart enough to put barriers and tasteful steel cable fences or railings to prevent people from getting too close to the edge.

@@downthetrailtruecrime Why not sue your grandmother for choosing that location or would that be called self responsibility? lol
Alligators should be located away from people, there just asking for trouble.

Are they waiting for the gators to grow
There needs to be fencing around those ponds.
WFLA got you beat Fox!!! Not only did they broadcast the 911 call, they also didn't call it a pond. It's a canal.
One can't fall in unless one foolishly gets close to it. I feel sorry for the 'gators.
Let me help you “journalist” out with your question of “How did this happen?”
Frail old lady lives by an alligator pond. She fell in and the alligators do what alligators do.

How else you gonna feed the lizards?

They need to get the alligators under control in Florida. This is happening to often.

How? People aren't allowed to poach Gators. I bet they're delicious.
They offer the tails for comsumption. It doesn't take like chicken. Yuck.
I was hoping they were going to say it was Trump, but the alligators would have probably shown him "professional courtesy"

Well how in the hell you fall into a pond unless you were really close to it may have been a suicide?
Too many alligators!!!
Did she have beef with Hillary?
Alligator infested pond. (2) wow!!!! Make it sound like it was several.

We need common sense alligator reform
Also, REMOVE THE GATORS.
Ban the alligators

Shit man… Florida sucks.

Ha the news acts like the alligators were human suspects.

If you gotta go, that's a real hum dinger way to do it. Respect to the angel of death.
