Is it true people in Florida ride on alligators through orange groves to get to the beach everyday?

Answer 1

Gators are fresh water.  You need crocks to ride to the beach on. Something America lacks. Gators are best to go out on lakes on & fish from, or for gator bridges to cross the canals on. Gators don't like salt & sand.  Last I was in the Florida orange groves we found it best to go to the ditch's in them & rope a wild bore. Saddle it & ride around for the day. Much better riding than a gator is. On land. Gators are lazy on land. Just want to lay around in the sun for most. On land we often had to rope them & drag them back to the water to launch them to fish from. Lots of work to do. 

Answer 2

yep, parking lots full of gators !!!!

Answer 3

No, that isn't true. Most of the orange groves are gone.

Answer 4

Only Florida residents are allowed to and they must have a class X designation on their drivers licenses.

Answer 5

No, they use Giant Anacondas. Way more fun and easier to ride.

Answer 6

No. Alligators don't go very far at a time. And humans don't ride them. And the alligators live inland, not at the beach.

Answer 7

You have obviously not been near any alligators. 

Answer 8

Yes and for 5 bucks tourists can ride them there

Answer 9

No it is not true.
