I don't "blame" them but I think its negligent to let my child go into a body of water that clearly says no swimming....but of course, rules don't apply, maybe only when we want them to.
there are nightly movies at all the resorts and nothing like this has happened before. Florida has gators EVERYWHERE...everywhere.
that water is NASTY, very dirty and not fit for swimming.
and that will suck.
it is a shame they are killing all the gators...
and that is highly discouraged anymore, people have abused the pool usage and other things for too long Disney is cracking down. But it really shouldn't matter. they should not have been "wading".
my friend runs the fishing charters out of the seven seas lagoon, there are plenty of gators in there. and that water is horrific. The ferry to magic kingdom runs in there, all the rental boats run in there....the nighttime water parade (oh watch this get cancelled). No swimming means don't get in the water...it doesn't mean wade it, feel free to float on your back and hang out but don't swim.....???
I am a native ~ gators are on golf courses, salt water canals, pools, backyards, everywhere.....we know not to walk small dogs and children next to the waters edge of ANY body of water. If its Florida and a body of water, assume there is at least one gator in it.
