So there's a creek? drainage? Something water behind our house. Neighbors say there's a gator in there.

We haven't seen him, but named him Wally.

there are apparently otters as well, which were playing out there earlier this week (I was asleep. The morning people parents saw them)

One of the strangest things was golfing in Hilton Head with gators on the course. -- nm - HdnAgnda Jan 8, 08:58
Call Animal Control. -- nm - TaurusII Jan 8, 08:48 7
- We haven't seen Wally, and there seems to be a rule they will only come if the gator is causing trouble. - ty97 Jan 8, 08:53
- they should have a people control -- nm - CQ Jan 8, 08:51 5
  - What's the strangest creature you've gotten out of a pool. And the biggest dead thing. -- nm - lileve Jan 8, 08:52 4
    - we had to build a ramp to get a customer's horse out once and the biggest dead thing was a mature doe. man, did that thing stink. -- nm - CQ Jan 8, 08:54 3
      - Biggest dead thing I pulled out of our river was a Canadian Goose. It stunk! -- nm - lileve Jan 8, 08:56 2
        
        water and dead things are a bad combo. bloated stink bombs heh -- nm - CQ Jan 8, 08:57 1
        
        Yes. -- nm - lileve Jan 8, 09:02
wait, where do you live? what did i miss? -- nm - kare Jan 8, 08:44 12
- Fort Myers, Florida - ty97 Jan 8, 08:45 11
  - It's Florida. I'd be abnormal if there *wasn't* a gator there. -- nm - Mop Jan 8, 08:47
  - whoa, really? how do you like it? you're right near sanibel, right? *jealous* - kare Jan 8, 08:47 6
    - Yeah, same job. I only moved because I travel all the time and want to keep the free housing. - ty97 Jan 8, 08:50 5
      - sanibel and captiva are beautiful, but crowded. Pine Island is where I'd go. Not much there though -- nm - CQ Jan 8, 08:53
      - *Streches out* Yeah, Round Rock was too crowded with ST/TTers...more leg room now -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Jan 8, 08:52 1
        
        don't hog the donuts! -- nm - ty97 Jan 8, 08:55
      - sanibel apparently has some of the best beachcombing in the world. i want to go and walk on the beach for days. - kare Jan 8, 08:52 1
        
        I've got to get some pictures and scan them for you to see. You'd be amazed at some of the beaches -- nm - CQ Jan 8, 08:56
  - if you hear hissing, it's a gator -- nm - CQ Jan 8, 08:46 2
    - my dad was chainsawing a tree stump near the water yesterday and had me hald a rake to swing, just in case. - ty97 Jan 8, 08:51 1
      - bah, they really are more scared of you -- nm - CQ Jan 8, 08:55
i hope Wally doesn't eat the otters (otters are awesome.) -- nm - Andie Jan 8, 08:44 6
- An otter would happily rip off your arm and strangle orphans with it. nm - Dignan Jan 8, 08:46 4
  - If it were big enough to do so. -- nm - TaurusII Jan 8, 08:47 3
    - Oh, her arm is *plenty* big. nm - Dignan Jan 8, 08:49 2
      - you just have a warped sense of other's appendage sizes. - Andie Jan 8, 08:50 1
        
        fatality!!! -- nm - loosilu Jan 8, 08:52
- if they're river otters though, stay away, they are nasty creatures. -- nm - loosilu Jan 8, 08:45
Well, there were otters in there. - Will Hunting Jan 8, 08:44
If there are otters there is no gator. -- nm - lileve Jan 8, 08:43 1
- There were otters earlier this week. But now? Hmmmm -- nm - ty97 Jan 8, 08:44
Clearly you need to go investigate. -- nm - Shaun Jan 8, 08:43 1
