What Qualifies as a Nuisance Alligator?
According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), an alligator that is at least four feet in length and poses a threat to people, pets, or property can be subject to removal. While smaller alligators generally pose no threat, they can occasionally qualify as a legitimate nuisance.
Who You Gonna Call?
The FWC has designed an alligator management program called SNAP to address concerns and complaints related to nuisance alligators. Administered by the FWC’s Division of Hunting and Game Management, the Statewide Nuisance Alligator Program provides a toll-free nuisance alligator hotline and contracts nuisance alligator trappers county-by-county.
