It boggles me that Southrons continualy tolerate gators and the threat they pose to humans and their property (pets, children, et al).

In my mind they are a major nuisance just like wolves up in Montana and should be extincted; the difference being gators are semi-edible. Don't they taste kinda like catfish, meaning don't they taste kinda like dirt?

Gator tasted like chicken to me. Not 'fishy' at all. It was pretty good, IMHO.

They taste like whatever fried meat tastes like.

I would still shoot the gator, skin him and grill him.

It’s against the law to shoot alligators most of the year. Our problem is northerners feeding them ... takes away their fear and makes them more likely to attack. That said, it’s never a good idea to walk a dog or small child near gator infested waters ... too tempting.

They taste like chicken with a hint of swamp. They eat pretty much everything on land or in the water.

It’s more like chicken - personally, I found it to be delicious lightly fried.
