when we lived in Mississippi. We also had a small dog little larger than a chihuahua. This makes a perfect meal for most gators.

When we first got to Mississippi, my brother and I stupidly went into the water in the bayou. The leeches kept us from doing that again. Seeing the gators reinforced staying out of there.
