Huh - I Wonder Why...

The 2006 alligator hunting season has been extended by six weeks (August 15 thru November 1) according to the The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. The hunt provides a thrilling, hands-on hunting adventure unlike any other hunting experience imaginable. Especially when you come across that 700 pound critter...

4,300 permits are available to both residents and non-residents and allow for two alligator kills per permit.

Last year, the commission sold just 2,770 of the 4,300 available permits.

Sales begin at 10 a.m. on June 15 -mark your calendars! The cost is $272 for Florida residents and a whopping $1,022 for non-residents.

Applicants may apply at any county tax collector's office, retail outlets that sell hunting and fishing licenses, online or by calling the commission at (888) 486-8356.
