Gator grunts! Bella is a very vocal alligator and talks a lot with her little grunts! These are the adult version of the baby Gator chirps!! It’s really cute to hear a dinosaur that can kill you doing baby chirps 😂. These chirps can usually mean begging or pleading, or other meanings depending on the situation!! ~~~Our rescue gators are wild caught nuisance gators that would’ve otherwise been destroyed. The state of Florida destroys 8,000 “nuisance” gators annually, but we don’t have a nuisance gators problem but rather a nuisance HUMAN problem. 1k people a day move to FL, unsustainably developing the land, and a lot of ignorant people making a nuisance out of themselves. NEVER feed a wild gator, never have kids or pets near the water, and never swim in gator habitat! And of course, never attempt anything you see in my videos! If you would like to donate to the care of the sanctuary animals, we greatly appreciate any support!!

Checkin in on Gaston the bloated gator!! He’s doing as good as he can be, not any worse but not significantly better either unfortunately. Check out some of my previous vlogs about him showing the various procedures and even living room exploratory surgery we have done to try to help him! We are currently discussing more medical options we might try once it warms up as well! I don’t even know how much we’ve spent on vet bills and medical treatments for him alone, so again I am so thankful to everyone who helps out with donations, as is Gaston!! ~~~Our rescue gators are wild caught nuisance gators that would’ve otherwise been destroyed.

Gator just wants a kiss!

Night swim with the Big Mac the alligator. At night he was much more predatory and sketchy! I had my good friend @danaturedude helping me film, and I usually edit out our banter, but had to leave in his excited voice and concern lol. I was just experimenting with Big Mac to see how he would react to various movements and was testing his reactions and behavior. This was actually shot back in the beginning of November when it was much warmer, but I hadn’t pulled the video off the GoPro yet! So I have a bunch of clips from this night I’ll be sharing! ~~~Our rescue gators are wild caught nuisance gators that would’ve otherwise been destroyed.

Method to the madness! I get so many comments thinking I’m just playing a game of chance and rolling the dice, “you’re playing Russian roulette with your life” people say on a daily basis. That couldn’t farther from the truth and I actually don’t do anything I’m not comfortable with and leave nothing to chance. Just because YOU don’t understand something and wouldn’t do it, doesn’t mean anything to how others operate. When I see someone doing some crazy rock climbing that I wouldn’t do, I don’t think that person is an idiot that doesn’t value their life, I think “wow that’s a person with knowledge and skills I don’t have, who is living their passion and life to the fullest”. Life has shown me that most people haven’t been taught this perspective, and there’s also a large fraction that are just plain stupid, and ya can’t fix stupid! 😂 But for those who haven’t been taught this perspective and would like to expand their horizons, this post is your starting block! But back to my gator work; there is of course inherent risk and accidents can happen, but again I really don’t take chances, anyone who actually knows me and my work personally knows how careful and methodical I am in my work. I don’t roll the dice. Risk is never eliminated, I never claim it is and I am the first to speak about how dangerous my work can be if mistakes are made. I also don’t often engage in high risk situations, at least by my standards. My standards are not yours. This isn’t to brag, but often times my normal chill day with gators would be the most dangerous day of a regular person’s life. This is largely because of their lack of experience & understanding. ALSO keep in mind I spent my 20s as a professional alligator wrestler, literally putting my head in the jaws of gators for tip money; practically everything I do now is quite tame comparatively. ~~~Our rescue gators are wild caught nuisance gators that would’ve otherwise been destroyed. The state of Florida destroys 8,000 “nuisance” gators annually, but we don’t have a nuisance gators problem but rather a nuisance HUMAN problem. 1k people a day move to FL, unsustainably developing the land, and a lot of ignorant people making a nuisance out of themselves. NEVER feed a wild gator, never have kids or pets near the water, and never swim in gator habitat! And of course, never attempt anything you see in my videos!If you would like to donate to the care of the sanctuary animals, we greatly appreciate any support!!

Method to the madness! I get so many comments thinking I’m just playing a game of chance and rolling the dice, “you’re playing Russian roulette with your life” people say on a daily basis. That couldn’t farther from the truth and I actually don’t do anything I’m not comfortable with and leave nothing to chance. Just because YOU don’t understand something and wouldn’t do it, doesn’t mean anything to how others operate. When I see someone doing some crazy rock climbing that I wouldn’t do, I don’t think that person is an idiot that doesn’t value their life, I think “wow that’s a person with knowledge and skills I don’t have, who is living their passion and life to the fullest”. Life has shown me that most people haven’t been taught this perspective, and there’s also a large fraction that are just plain stupid, and ya can’t fix stupid! 😂 But for those who haven’t been taught this perspective and would like to expand their horizons, this post is your starting block! But back to my gator work; there is of course inherent risk and accidents can happen, but again I really don’t take chances, anyone who actually knows me and my work personally knows how careful and methodical I am in my work. I don’t roll the dice. Risk is never eliminated, I never claim it is and I am the first to speak about how dangerous my work can be if mistakes are made. I also don’t often engage in high risk situations, at least by my standards. My standards are not yours. This isn’t to brag, but often times my normal chill day with gators would be the most dangerous day of a regular person’s life. This is largely because of their lack of experience & understanding. ALSO keep in mind I spent my 20s as a professional alligator wrestler, literally putting my head in the jaws of gators for tip money; practically everything I do now is quite tame comparatively. ~~~Our rescue gators are wild caught nuisance gators that would’ve otherwise been destroyed.

Checking in on Trapjaw, the gator that had the metal snare embedded into his upper jaw. We don’t know exactly how this happened, but past experience leads me to believe it was someone trying to illegally poach this little gator, it’s unbelievable how commonly this happens. He’s doing good, we’ve just been leaving him alone to heal in stress free environment. It will take a while, but I think in a few years you won’t even be able to tell he had these cuts into his skull. ~~~Our rescue gators are wild caught nuisance gators that would’ve otherwise been destroyed.

It’s upsetting that it’s become so widespread but it’s also interesting to study how we can work to bust some of these cults and get people believing in facts again. Obviously some people aren’t gonna be open to anything but a heated debate, but even just listening helps. We’re scientists! Let’s study their behavior and learn from it!! #scicomm #science #scientist

As a science communicator I highly recommend that we read books and study cultist behavior because it is so eerily similar to what we’re dealing with here! There’s a certain way you have to word things and certain body language you need to use or look out for… it can help so many people realize we’re not against them and instead want to help them learn!! #scicomm #scientist

GOOD WATER DOGGO🐊😂. As always, I like to remind everyone gators aren’t actually like dogs, he’s not my pet, he’s not tame he’s trained, and the way he acts is through training and understanding but if I got knocked out next to him he wouldn’t hesitate to eat me 😂. Thankfully gators don’t usually see adult humans as food and really want nothing to do with people! If you enjoy the video, PLEASE SHARE!! Getting the educational content out there is our best bet to get people to care about and want to help wildlife! This was one year ago at Everglades outpost when I used to do tours with Casper. I am now full time working on my own sanctuary in north Florida, just to reiterate Casper is owned by the outpost, not my gator, and i don’t really see him anymore. #animaleducation #Rescue #AnimalRescue #AnimalSanctuary #ExoticAnimals #Animals #Animals #CuteAnimals #educational #Gator #Alligator #crocodile #nilecroc #nilecrocodile #reptile #scicomm #rescuegator
