I know this is a reach and have no proof but I wonder if some of the reasons gators down there are becoming more aggressive toward humans is reduction in natural prey in competition with pythons. Maybe a coincidence and its just because gator numbers have rebounded and people are just bumping into them more but hardly ever heard of all these gator attacks and python numbers supposedly increasing.
