Alligator

People concerned about an alligator should call our toll-free Nuisance Alligator Hotline at 866-FWC-GATOR (866-392-4286). Generally, an alligator is deemed a nuisance if it is at least 4 feet in length and the caller believes it poses a threat to people, pets or property.

If you believe the above to be true call that number and they will give you a reference number and then call Brian Oatman 941-212-6523 with the reference number and Brian will call the FWC and allow them access to the property.
