yes! i went to DW 18 mo. ago, and at no time did i see any signs about gators. We stayed in a Disney resort and took that boat all over, even at night. I truly had no idea that was a possibility.
Now i know to be careful

I saw the sign posted at the lagoon where the little boy was snatched by the alligator. It said, “Steep drop off. No swimming.” Nothing about alligators. If there was the kind of sign you posted I’ll bet the boy and his father would have have been no where near that water.

Yes.

“No Swimming” does not convey the danger from alligators.

At Cape Canaveral they have signs along the sidewalks warning not to step off into the bushes because of gators.

I was there in 1996 with my 10 year old daughter and as we were pulling into the main parking lot a 8-10ft gator walked across the road in front of us.
