Alligator alert as two killed in Florida,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
The three killings in six days have caused alarm in Florida,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], where fatal alligator attacks had averaged one every three years since recordkeeping began in 1948. May is the peak of the alligator mating season and the end of the dry season, making the creatures more aggressive.
Experts say that human encroachment on alligator territory is also a factor in the increased spate of attacks on humans.
The animals' sudden appetite for human flesh "has gotten everyone in a panic," said a trapper who later caught the 400lb specimen responsible for one of the deaths.
In the latest incident, Ann-Marie Campbell (23) from Tennessee,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], was seized while snorkelling in a remote spring in the Ocala National Forest,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 130km north of Orlando.
Friends found her dangling from the jaws of an alligator and leaped on the thrashing beast to try to wrest her free.
"They gouged its eyes and pounded on its snout with their hands,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Kat Kelley,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, said. "They were trying to pry open its jaws."
In Dunedin, 225km away, the body of Judy Cooper (43) was found mutilated in a pond.
"I saw what looked like a pair of trousers floating on the pond. Then I saw a pair of sneakers attached to it, and my daughter went out there with a stick and pushed on it, and it turned out to be a body,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Fred Ferderber,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a local resident, said.
"Her arms were missing and she had a couple of bite marks on her sides."
Mr Ferderber (50) said that he had seen an alligator sunbathing behind his home in recent days. "When you got close to it,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it would hiss at you. Most of the time they'll flee into the water. This one just sits there like it's his spot."
The grisly killings came days after Yovy Suarez Jimenez,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a 28-year-old student who had hoped to become a model,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], was ambushed by an alligator while jogging alongside a canal in Sunrise,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 48km north of Miami.
"Alligators are pretty much anywhere where there's water in Florida,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and that's where we're building houses - around ponds and rivers and canals,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Kent Vliet, an alligator expert.
