Florida Fun - Gatorland

Okay, I did go to a park, but GatorLand is a much smaller affair.

Gatorland, as you probably already guessed by its name, has a whole lot of alligators. Dozens and dozens, and all of the four species of gators:

• American - Florida, Mexico, Central and South America


• Cuban - Cuba


• Nile - Africa


• Saltwater - Southeast Asia and Australia

While I was there I walked around the entire park, and watched an alligator wrestling show. Gatorland also has a nature/swamp walk, bird sanctuary, snakes, iguanas, tortoises, wild turkeys, and even a bear (an illegally captured black bear was too domesticated to be released back to the wild so Gatorland offered it a home).
