Skunk Ape
• Continue here
The Everglades is also home to the Florida panther, black bear and both the American alligator and the Florida crocodile. All of these species are protected. Alligators, although protected, are by no means endangered. Approximately one million alligators inhabit Florida swamplands. Alligators have accounted for many human deaths throughout Florida in recent years. Never enter an alligator’s cave in search of Skunk Apes. Not only could you be trapped by submerged roots and drown, you could also be bitten and possibly dismembered or killed. The best method for determining if Skunk Ape’s are frequenting an alligator cave is to look for tracks and droppings at the cave’s entrance. IMPORTANT NOTE: Poisonous snakes are frequently found in the vicinity of these watery depressions, USE CAUTION.
