Hunter stops ALLIGATOR ATTACK while duck hunting in Florida (Swamp N Stomp ep. # 40)

Danny sets out on a duck hunt in the STAs, some South Florida public land. These wildlife management areas are known for high density of waterfowl, fish and also American Alligators. Danny has a close encounter with a gator, and shows how to deal with wildlife attacks. He manages to deter its deadly attack with a carefully placed shot right in front of its snout. He took this non-lethal approach because we have no intent on harming these beautiful creatures, and he felt there was enough time for a follow up shot if it did not work. Encountering alligators is sometimes a part of wading through the swamps, and you should always be aware of your surroundings. Swamp N Stomp always operates legally and pays close attention to Florida law. In this case, the alligator posed an imminent threat to life or limb, and Florida law states that in such a scenario one can use any force necessary to prevent injury. We were lucky that this all played out well, do not think it will happen the same way everytime. Be safe out there and try to avoid a situation like this.
