Florida Woman Comes Dangerously Close To Alligator Mating Call

A Florida Woman got ridiculously close to an alligator that was performing a mating call.

These large reptiles should be respected from a distance. Especially during mating season.

This craziness happened on Lake Apopka Wildlife Drive in Orange County. Our Florida Woman, Evelyn Bell, captured the footage of the alligator growling at the edge of the lake. Check it out:

So we come to find out that the video was recorded from the safety of Evelyn’s car. Still that’s a little too close for comfort for us when it comes to alligators!

According to Florida Fish & Wildlife, it’s still alligator mating season in Florida so that’s why this gator is being so vocal!

Remember: Keep a safe distance from alligators. Not everyone is that smart.

There are so many beaches surrounding the state of Florida. With the number of lists of "best beaches," there will be differences in each.

US News Travel created a list of the top #15 beaches in Florida. Of course, the Tampa Bay area has its share of well-known beaches. In the annual list by the respected Dr. Beach, there were two Florida beaches in his top 10 beaches in the U.S. Those two were St. George Island State Park in the panhandle and Caladesi Island State Park in Dunedin.

As always, these lists are very subjective, so it will be different than other lists. Also, this list focuses only on Florida beaches.

Which of them are represented in the list from US News Travel?

We love our Tampa Bay area beaches, but we still have to send some love to Naples.

According to their tourism website, they are the "World’s Luckiest Fishing Village."

On the 'Emerald Coast' in the Florida Panhandle.

Their motto? The "Most fun small town in America"

They call themselves "America’s First Resort Destination."

On the Gulf coast just a few minutes from the Florida Everglades.

...and they clearly know it!
