I'm a stereotypical northerner who expects to find Gators in marshes, actual swampy areas, etc. That being said you're right, I've always been keenly aware in the back of my head, during all my vacations to Florida in my life that water=gators. But yeah being in any water is not a good idea period. Its surprising they ever allowed swimming there tbh100% incorrect. Walt Disney world is a swamp. It was chartered with the state with wildlife preserve provisions.
To think that they can control the vast area and animal populations on this type of scale is foolish.
I have to defend Disney here - the media line of questioning is silly. They do a damn good job of keeping wildlife in its place there. But it was never going to be failure proof.
And if theyre local...shame on them. They know better. It's an ecosystem and that doesn't need to be apologized for...
Also for the record the family was from Nebraska
