July 25, 2013 - Kenansville, Florida - Owners of Wild Florida (www.wildfloridairboats.com), an airboat tour and alligator exhibit attraction, had the opportunity to rescue alligators and relocate them to the Wild Florida Wildlife Park.
The Wild Florida Gator Rescue team works with local gator farms and other organizations to help capture and relocate gators to a more natural and beneficial environment. Their goal is to create a safe environment for the alligators by placing them in a gator exhibit that is on the Wild Florida property. This alligator exhibit is home to over 25 alligators and offers park visitors a chance to experience an alligator up close and personal in a natural habitat.
The Wild Florida Gator Rescue team rescued a total of 9 alligators, ranging from 3 feet to 6 feet in length.
“We are very excited for the opportunity to introduce more alligators to our exhibit. We want all of our airboat tour & wildlife park visitors to experience true, natural Florida and what it has to offer,” states Ranier Munns, co-found of Wild Florida. “Our team is passionate about alligators and wildlife of all kinds, and wants to share the natural beauty of these gators with those who come to experience Wild Florida.”
To see all of the alligators and other wildlife that call Wild Florida home, you can purchase a Wildlife Park ticket for $18 for adults and $15 for children. If you want to enjoy a unique airboat tour experience through the swamps of Wild Florida, book a half-hour or hour-long airboat ride and explore the Wildlife Park for free following your tour.
