“Spring is mating season for the American Alligator, which means you’re more likely to see males moving among lagoons to meet their mates between late March and early June.”
While fascinating creatures, alligators are dangerous and it is illegal to feed them. They also can be found on the beach in standing water or tidal pools. Pay extra attention to alligator presence on the beach and while near lagoons and ponds.
