This man has made the (seemingly) impossible possible – he trains alligators to become cuddle buddies.
He works with alligators who are caught from the wild and somehow turns them into what seems like a friendly pet.
These creatures have not been raised in captivity, nor have they been conditioned to interact with humans through feeding or other means – it’s all done through his training.
This raises the question: how does he manage to interact with these predators without becoming prey?
Apparently, with patience and respect you can achieve the things that most would assume to be impossible.
Allegedly, he doesn’t use food for motivation, nor does he sedate the animals to make them more manageable.
Their powerful jaws can exert a force of over 2,000 pounds per square inch, a force so big that it can easily crush bones
Also, one of their specialties is the element of surprise.
On land, alligators can reach speeds up to 11 miles per hour, while in water, they are even faster, capable of short bursts of speed up to 20 miles per hour.
