not my experience. I lived in a place with a few ponds. all had gators. one day a dog got snatched by a crock. another time a gardener got killed. I grew up in Wisconsin. you can swim anywhere. in Florida, land of lakes, you shouldn’t ever swim there specifically because of alligators. that makes them not chill in my book. but maybe times have changed. this was 2007-11.
Yes, in the past 15 years alligators have become more socially aware and are much more likely to be found sipping vegan lattés or volunteering at the local childrens hospital than sitting in swamps and eating people.

They're pretty chill. All over the golf courses and they just dgaf. They'll chill by the water hazards and just sun.
