Episode Details

Despite efforts by Florida officials warning residents and visitors about the threat of alligators during mating season, there have been three separate attacks in that state in just one week. The most recent attack happened on Sunday, when a 31-year-old woman hiking with her boyfriend and best friend, died after a massive alligator first bit off one arm, and then attacked her second, as her boyfriend desperately called 9-1-1 for help. She died on her way to the hospital. Two others were injured by alligators including a 19-year-old snorkeler and a young boy who was bitten in the hand while fishing.  Florida officials are telling folks: “Assume alligators are present in any body of water in Florida.”
