oh ok I understand now.. so I think the minimum solution was to put many signs of the alligators danger in Disney World and really to be specific not to get inside the water even just to put the foot..
 the more people aware of that the more they will pay attention..

My guess is that they will put up barriers on all their beaches and put up big warning  signs and hand out warnings with every check in to their resorts.

I hate alligators.  Florida has too many.  They've snatched dogs in peoples' backyards down by the shore.  They run fast on ground.  There is a video by someone in Florida videoing an alligator walking in the front yard of the neighbor across the street and the alligator jumped up tall like he was trying to open the door, scratching at it.    There is an area in Wekiva Springs where people party and kayak, but you're not supposed to be in the water past a certain point. A drunk woman swam farther down even when told not to, and an alligator attacked her and bit off her arm.  Kayakers had to save her and bring her to shore.

There's also stories of alligators appearing in people's swimming pools too. Never happened to me or anyone I knew, but it does happen from time to time. Alligators also (a) Prefer smaller prey, and thus would be more attracted to toddlers or dogs than adult humans, and (b) Are most active at dusk and early nighttime, and the attack occurred at 21:15 local time. It's just a case of not knowing the risks. 

OMG I live in Italy and that's so scary to hear :wtf: I would not sleep at night knowing all of this. Damn.

They also need to start enforcing their "don't feed the wildlife" rules too. And by enforce, I mean start kicking people out of the parks and resorts for doing it. That's the only way to keep animals away from human areas. You just know this is likely one reason why such a giant, solitary, reptile like an alligator was in such close proximity to Guests.

I mean, I'm afraid of living in Australia because not only do they have crocodiles, but taipans, stonefish, blue-ringed octopuses, great white sharks, funnel web spiders, box jellies, etc. But I went and I didn't die :shrug: You just have to know your environment and be safe and aware. Like living in a city or being a smoker. (Although one should never become a smoker.)

Eek? There's gator in Disneyland?

Thought they have already relocated them to safer place away from people.

I am sure Disney won't allow gators to be near their costumers aside from the golf course?

They've already surrounded the water that the boy fell in with thick posts and a tall fence and they're apparently putting up a ton of more warning signs in the next few days.

Fell it? Hi, I'm tired...you know what I meant :/
