Fire rescue took the 34-year-old man to the hospital after the alligator bit his face, according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission which dispatched a contracted trapper to the lake and is continuing to investigate the incident.

I was going to say 'What's to investigate?' but then I realized Florida man was involved.

How do you feel about the iguana infestation that is taking over S. Florida and moving northward?

I lived with iggys for a long time. They don’t bother me unless they get tangled up in my radiator fan or take over my favorite outside chair. Then we have issues. I had a big one who I named Paco. He didn’t have a tail and was still 2.5 long. Old dude. He did take over one of our chairs. I didn’t argue. We used to smoke cigars and drink beer at the other chairs while he just sat there listening.

Lake Thonotosassa.

Firefighter from Pasco county. He was training for a triathlon.

There is drone video of the attack.

It’s a wow.

Since they’re present in all 67 counties, I’ll probably eventually see one while mowing my lawn, in which circumstance, I will promptly leave the lawn mower and go back in the damn house.

Even when I was a kid living in FL and spending a lot of time at my Aunt and Uncles house in Tampa you did not swim in the lakes.
