Alligators Face Extinction Across Florida Coastlines
Tampa reports that alligators, once abundant across Georgia and Florida swamps, are dwindling toward extinction due to intensive hunting. Florida now harbors few along the coastlines with Manatee, Lee, DeSoto and Dade counties retaining some, while Everglades remains hardest to reach. Commercial use of hides sustains slaughter as firms in New Orleans move over 500,000 skins yearly, and vendors recruit young alligators for summer trade, disemboweling and preserving them for sale.
