I Have To Believe That Disney Made A Conscious Decision Not To Post 'Danger:Alligator' Signs.....

[cbdo2007]

22. I wonder if there have been other alligator interactions at Disney...

If they have close calls, say every 3 months or even every other year, sure they should have had a sign....if they have an alligator incident once every 10 years, then no they probably don't need a sign.

Just because there is a slight chance something could go wrong doesn't mean there has to be a sign warning of it. There aren't signs at every intersection that say "Look both ways before crossing the street" yet you are probably 10,000 times more likely to be hit by a car at Disney than you are to even see an alligator.

I'm sure all of this focus on Disney will raise some of these questions and they will do whatever they feel is appropriate but at this point it is unfair to overlook the possibility that this was just an extremely unfortunate accident.

I do have a trip scheduled for my family of 5 down to Disney World in September, from Missouri, so it is true that we never would have understood the true dangers of alligators there on the Disney property if this story had not happened.
