“Between the man eating sharks and alligators, water moccasins, mosquitoes big as cats and hurricanes..”
You didn’t mention the invasive critters y’all have walking and slithering around down there.
Burmese pythons, feral hogs, poisonous cane toads, lion fish, Giant African land snails, iguanas, green mussels and feral cats.
And thats just the top eight!
I’ll take a python over a moccasin any day.....water moccasin = juju
Bobcats and cayotes love small dogs.
