I read that this is a man-made lake, and they don't know how the alligators got there. Is it nearby to natural waterways where the gaters could have come from?
every water way in Fl is connected. (that is why after the tropical storm we got a couple of weeks ago and 6" of rain we did not look like Texas) if there is standing water there's probably a gator in it or has passed through it. There are gators ALL over disney property. It was swamp land that they build up over. so all of the natural low lying areas still contain all sorts of Fl wild life. deer, turkeys, coons, opossums, I believe a few bear were pulled out of the park recently and all manner of snakes. stay on the cement and you will be fine. go off into the swamp and you will quickly learn you are no longer on top of the food chain. Got to remember the size of this place/property is literally larger than San Fransisco, so there are lots of undeveloped sites, which means lots a wild animals..
