Description
here I am park very close to where the Mother gator is. In the lower image shows the shadow of my truck to show you how close the gator is ;who is protection her eggs so she will charge. She is just left of the big bush in the weeds. it be hard to see her.
To my shock this car drives up and these girls get out and get right next to my truck. They have no wheres to run if the mother gator comes out after them. I just can not believe it. I took the photo on top with the two girls are to show you how they look. I could not turn too good and get a good shot sho I shot it off the mirror of my truck. I try to tell them the dangers but they just look t me as if I some dumb hick.
sharky_ been posting some stuff of dangers on his volcanos shots which is wonderful. Please check out his gallery too so you too will be a better and safer person. I been shooting shots of what people do this is danger but they act like it nothing. So I going to post them now this week. Some is just plain dumb

Well, we all know you're not some "dumb hick" :o) ....you killed me with that one ! LOL.....and to my way of thinking, if they want to be stupid, let 'em...they'll learn :o) ....cool shot !

The exuberance of youth, they have no sense of fear at that age Jocko, they soon would have if the mama croc started towards them. Like Richard says they would most likely try and climb into the bed of your truck. I guess they have to have a fright experience before the get that sense. Excellent shot showing just how stupid some people can be. Bravo!!!!!

Your images have that quality of being timeless in many ways. Your recording a time and place, reflecting on people being people, music making, working, collecting, and being involved in the process of living. Just wonderful!

Interesting shot, Jock. And wise words. Those kids have NO idea of how fast and deadly a gator is. Else they would not be standing there. Sad to hear people don't listen to good and healthy advice:) I really look forward to see some pics, when her eggs hatch.+5

Excellent captures Jock, unfortunately no one listens to the warnings these days.

You know... I used to spend lots of time trying to warn people of certain dangers.... Now? I will tell people once. They don't heed it? Oh well. In the case of your pictures, I would be the one poised nearby with the camera ready to capture the moment in which the stupid people (who had been forewarned) were being devoured. Nice croc meal. LOL I have little to no tolerance anymore for stupidity of this sort. People need to understand that other living beings also have a right to survive and protect their young... Thanks for these pics, Jocko! You always make me think and feel... : )

I love it when pictures tell a story, and Jocko, you are a master at that!!! To bad them girls do not listen to experience, they could loose an arm leg, or life ignoring your advise . . .

And if someone gets attacked by the gator doing what gators do naturally, then it will be the gator that dies. The poor thing will be hunted down and killed. Good shots you got Jock!
