We took a tour of 'Alligator Alley'. They had all ages of alligators there. They put on a small show that they call feeding the alligators. They are fed with feral pigs. They said the pigs are all over & people catch them & bring the pigs to them to feed the alligators.
It was really interesting and informative.
