Yes I have seen one before. Last year we stayed at Pop century resort and near the bridge to cross from POP to AOA there was one swimming around but I couldn't tell how big he was.

No, thankfully. I'm afraid of alligators lol. Just did research though and there have been very few fatal attacks in the US... Just never swim in Florida ponds o:

There is really no need to worry about gators. They are in general extremely lazy and not very aggressive.
What I have seen in WDW that concerns me is Black Widows Spiders. Every time I have been to DAK I have literally seen hundreds.

I am not 100% sure if it was actually one or not as it was quick glance in the dark when I was running the Everest Challenge race- by the small pond in the parking lots. I have however I have seen a few snakes, including a fairly large one at ASM resort, saw it bite someone!

Here is a link to same topic, where I posted a pic and a video. I have a video of the one at SSR as well. We see Gators everytime we are there... at some point or another. Canals, ponds and in/near the parks. We have seena small one in the reeds in the lake in front of DHS, obviously in AK(by video in other thread, although a baby there) and un MK by rafts to TSI and back behind Rivers of America from the train. Most resorts we have stayed , we have seen one or two also. The lake in front of Kidani village had 2 fairly lage gators a few years back too! It's not a WDW trip without the Gator pic! Seen a few snakes as well.

I've seen an alligator from the monorail before. I wish I could have seen it longer but we were moving. It still was really neat to see.

We saw the one armed one at Easter 2012 by the raft that take you to Tom Sawyer Island and that summer we saw a baby one twice in the bayou that is in front of the BC walking to the bus stops

I need a dislike button for this post!!
As for alligators, I haven't seen one there, but when walking along the sassalouga river I always look!

That's because they always make it into ROA. There was a three legged gator in there for a while that would come up to the old smoking section. I created a thread on it. And I realize this might be posted already.
