As a potential game-changer for Florida's alligator hunters, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is contemplating a significant proposal to broaden hunting opportunities for a select group of enthusiasts. As of now, alligator hunters are restricted to hunting during one of the first four weeks of the season. However, the proposed changes introduce a more inclusive approach.
Under the new proposal, five special-use permits would be issued through a random draw, allowing recipients the flexibility to hunt throughout the entire season across any management unit, spanning both public wetlands and private land. This proposal signifies a substantial departure from the existing, more restrictive regulations. Interested hunters can submit an unlimited number of applications for these permits, each priced at $5. Floridian permit recipients would face a $250 fee, while non-Floridians would pay $750. For the alligator hunting community, this marks an exciting development, offering increased flexibility and the potential for a more successful season.
