The error is not in the gators. The error is in park design. If you don't want people wading into water, don't put sand. Leave it grassy and muddy. And dredge out the damned weeds and algae.

Disney is in for a major lawsuit and major expense in totally redesigning these resorts.

That pond looks like a water hazard at any course. Small ledge and steep drop. They need to remove the sand, fence off the thing, or remove the ledge. A gator can't stalk and launch without a little ledge of shallow water to launch from, and their wont be any prey if no ledge to stand on.

There's not really a ledge....it's a fairly shallow body of water all the way across. As I stated before, it's man-made with the dirt pulled from there used to build up the Magic Kingdom and resort land. It's connected to a much deeper body of water in Bay Lake which is a natural body of water.

Uh.. they've been that way for 45 years without incident. But now, suddenly, they have to do a total redesign of the park?
