People can rent the animals from locals, swim around with them

Apparently, people in Florida can really teach the rest of the world a thing or two about wild parties.

This is because, as of recently, pool parties in this American state are not just about music, snacks and whatever other things usually make their way into such social gatherings.

To cut a long story short, those wishing to have a really wild time can rent gators from locals and swim around with them.

Interestingly enough, these alligators are the main attraction for children's parties, as kids supposedly are quite overjoyed to come this close to these animals.

Sources report that Bob Barrett, the owner of Alligator Attractions in Johns Pass Village, explained how, “You've had the Chuck E Cheese party, the clown party, the jump-a-roo bounce house,” and that the time has now come for alligators to steal the spotlight.

It may be true that the gators have their mouths taped shut so that they won't harm anybody, but odds are that conservationists will argue that, although the people run close to no risks, these animals are quite unlikely to be having the time of their lives.
