You gotta have a special set of balls to do some stuff like this. The definition of Cac shyt. You can “train” these animals to know you and be chill but you can never tame a wild animal, because their natural instincts affects their mood. Humans aside from small children usually aren’t these apex predator first choice as prey unless they’re provoked. Our size is a slight deterrent for them because they think we’ll put up too much of a fight (absolutely not) and prefer easier targets.
Not to derail this thread, but I wanted to share this guy’s video on this alligator named Casper that he works with. He is really informative and is a chill dude I caught myself doing down the rabbit hole on alligators and binge watching his stuff
