In Everglades National Park, some of the gators really aren’t phased by passersby. This hefty chunk of crocodilia was snoozing comfortably adjacent to the pedestrian trail at Royal Palm. I’d love to know how many photos were taken of this particular gator on this particular day and at this particular hour. Everyone (myself included) couldn’t help but to snag a quick shot.
