There should be some standard for articles.

Sorry but the how to survive an aligator attack is just stupid.

My favorite line:

"Alligators' mouths are covered in rotting flesh', making them breeding grounds for deadly pathogens. To avoid gangrene or other maladies, ingest powerful antibiotics, or, if unavailable, cauterize your wounds with fire."

Why go to the hospital when i can down a bottle of cipro and burn off my arm.

Tomorrow I'm gonna write add an article on fart burning

needs work

It would be great to have some information like: where they live, what they eat, how long they live, social and/or family structure, etc. The bit on surving an alligator attack might belong in a long article (if it was totally rewritten), but let's get some basic information before the sensationalistic crap.


Stupid question :I heard they are dinosaurus?

2nd question . What is the difference with crocs?

A1: They were around with the dinos, but they are not.

A2: Different families, jaw shape, other, see interesting article.


How dangerous are alligators? Are they less dangerous than sea crocodiles? What is the alligator population of Florida? Other states? How about an article on alligator wrastlin'.

Question 1 - The males are called 'bitches'. What are female and young alligators called?

A1: Bulls.

How do gators manage to find their way?

How do gator every now and then manage to find their way into the Metro Atlanta area? Some say they make it up the fall line, other say through irrigation systems.
