I love Gators...

And I love catching them even more. This was done with permits for a field study with the University.

I'd like to know too, how many?

around 30. I forget the exact number. This was the largest, we were studying whether or not there is an effect on the sex of the gators being born with the warmer winters and heavy droughts we have had through the south. we found about a 60/40 split between sexes. I do not have access to the previous studies right now though so I am not sure if these results are significant or not. I will let you know when the final paper gets sent my way.

Ok cool. Im quite interested. When u say 60/40 was that f/m split or m/f?

Just babies. None that could draw more than a few drops of blood.
